Reading What We Want

Help me give my students file drawer storage, books, snacks, and incentives for spending time reading!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Yeager's classroom raised $666

My Project

Let's keep the love of reading going! My classroom library is a place where my students can go on an adventure without leaving the classroom, but sometimes it misses the mark. The books in this project are picked out by each student because of their own wants and desires. To enhance their commitment to reading, prizing are always a good idea! The stress balls, key chains, ring pops, and fidget toys will be used as prizes for meeting reading and behavior goals at the end of each week! A good book, a good snack, and prizes are always a good idea!

My students need snacks to help them remain focused throughout the day.

The pirates booty, granola bars, and fruit snacks will ensure students will be successful in the classroom because they will have the fuel they need throughout the day. The students will be able to choose snacks to meet their needs in class or to take home for after school snack.
