Reading Stand & Books

Help me give my students a reading stand and new books for our classroom based on interest of students.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Leonte's classroom raised $286

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Please help provide a read stand to be used by students with visual impairments in my classroom. The stands will allow the books to be raised and easier for them to view. The books selected for this project are about things that interest my students such as, superhero's, Pete the Cat, Minecraft and Pokemon. My students are more engaged during reading when they are reading about a topic that interests them. These books will be used during Reading, Fun Friday Book Reports and for fun.

Please help spark a joy of reading for diverse learners in my classroom.
