Read It! Write It!

Help me give my students new books to read and journals to write in.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Almy's classroom raised $327

This project is fully funded

My Project

We are in need of the latest books in some of the series our kids love to read and have read to them. The books will be put in bins the kids can get to at work time or read to during large group. Journals will be used to work on their writing skills.

Read it, Write it, and Celebrate it!

An important part of reading is writing. The skills need to be practiced starting at a young age. Our students are excited to become readers and writers while they enjoy learning.
