My Project

Each week, my students earn raffle tickets for good behavior and on Fridays we use those tickets to raffle off books for them to keep at home. My students love this incentive system! Many of them come from homes where they do not have easy access to grade-level reading material.

To be able to earn books, to read and keep at home, is a BIG DEAL to them!

This project would help me put high-interest chapter books in the raffle. All of these books are from popular series like Dog Man, Amelia Bedelia, Twintuition, National Geographic and more! My students would be over the moon excited to be able to own these novels.

Any donation for this project would go a long way towards helping my students find and keep a love of reading!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
