Reading, Thinking, And Writing, OH MY!

Help me give my students access to a class set of a great novel, The Giver!

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students have read short stories, been in book clubs, and have read educational magazines. Now it is time for our class to enjoy studying a class novel. A class novel will help our students to engage in whole class discussions, learn responsibility through reading assignments, and bond with their peers when learning. Please donate to help give my class a set of a novel that will provoke critical thinking and learning empathy, "The Giver." Thank you in advance for all of your help! You are pouring into the next generation!
