Remarkable Read Alouds

Help me give my students more remarkable stories to add to our classroom library for read alouds!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Henley's classroom raised $355

My Project

Each day, I spend time to sit down with my students and read a story to them. My students enjoy all different kinds of stories and the time that we get to sit together and read. A lot of time, these stories help us practice the reading skill we are working on for the day, but sometimes they are just to read for fun.

It does not matter the age of the child, they all enjoy having books read to them!

I want to be able to add more read aloud choices to our classroom library as I am running out of options.

My students and I would love to have this project funded to help us further our love for reading and having story time in our classroom each day. We hope to have these books in our classroom and get to enjoy some new stories.
