This teacher needs your help!

Ms. Mudd from Denver, CO is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Ramp Up our Reading!

My project needs books which are of high-interest reading books for my 9th grade students, many of whom are significantly behind the reading comprehension standards for their grade level.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Mudd's classroom raised $309

This project is fully funded

I teach 9th grade reading seminar. The students in my class are low-level readers and, unfortunately, our school is without a library.

It has been difficult to find books that are of interest to my 9th graders. Although my students have a strong interest in poetry and graphic novels, our school does not offer these kinds of books.

With new reading books in the classroom, I would be able to better structure our reading seminar and provide my students with a range of books for different reading interests and abilities.

By funding this grant you will help inspire a life-long love of reading and empower our readers to take responsibility for their own learning.
