My Project

Donations to this project will not only enhance our classroom library with new and exciting books but help students with their literacy skills, such as fluency and comprehension.

Your help will allow my students to experience literature at their reading level.

This is exactly what they need (along with instruction) for them to become better readers. By donating books you will help me help them to learn to read and enhance their love of reading!

This will have lasting impacts on the life of my students by cultivating their already existing love of reading and hopefully create life-long independent readers.
