My students need a variety of 8 book titles, including 25 copies of "ABC: A Child's First Alphabet Book" and "Green Eggs and Ham".
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Swann's classroom raised $607
This project is fully funded
On a daily basis, I have contact with students from all grade levels in the school. When the students come to my room, I want to be able to have books that I can give them to read.
I want to create a library within my room where children from a variety of grade levels can take a book to read. Often times, students need to have someone draw their attention to a particular book to read. The students can read and discuss the book with me. This will improve their vocabulary and comprehension skills.
I need books that will appeal to students from kindergarten to the eighth grade. By having the books located in my room, students can easily take the books home to read and return. This will teach them responsibility and improve their literacy skills.
You can help make the Read and Return program possible by giving to my cause. A book can take a student to places they have never been before and educate them about a variety of things they did not know before. Please help me to help the students at my school.
More than half of students from low‑income households
