Rather Be Reading

Help me give my students the books to help enhance and foster their reading.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jackson's classroom raised $189

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students have a love for reading. These books will allow my students to enhance their reading skills by having the option to choose from a variety of books in the classroom. The best way to enhance reading is to provide reading opportunities. The selected books have been chosen with my students in mind. The students will have independent reading opportunities throughout the day. The best way to increase reading is to read more and this project will only help enrich their experience with the printed words and rich vocabulary exposure.
