Real Books in a Remote World

Help me give my students a multitude of books to read from as most of the books they are reading are digital.

My Students

My unique, enthusiastic students are students in an inner-city, Title I school. All the students are entitled to free lunch, as well as breakfast. This does not stop their determination and hard work. These students are focused and fun to work with.

My students are an enthusiastic and diverse group of lifelong learners.

They love to learn and have a great work ethic. They are eager little learners. These children may be learners today, but they are the leaders of tomorrow.

My Project

Holding and turning the pages of a book are part of reading that my remote education class is lacking. Please help me get books into the hands of my little scholars.

Having a book you can call your own is special, as well as getting it from your teacher in the mail.

This is my goal.

Both fiction and nonfiction books will help students develop new skills. Also, the books are all on the levels of the students in my class, so I can reach the needs of each individual scholar.
