Help me give my students books and bins to reorganize our classroom library.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Greene's classroom raised $934

My Project

Education is always changing, and so are the interests of my third graders. Students in my classroom love graphic novels! Comic books are a gateway to better reading skills for reluctant readers. My school does not have a library so it is up to me to provide these kinds of books in the classroom.

It is now time to reorganize our classroom library.

I plan to use the bins for storage and the books, paper and colored pencils to make student-created genre labels. My goal is to create a library that is warm and welcoming, complete with a variety of books.
