Help me give my students books that they can keep as a reward!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Paschke's classroom raised $486

My Project

I want to reward my students with books that they can take home and keep forever. I did a similar project last year and it has been such a hit with my 1t - 3rd graders we want to expand the project!

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase my students' reading ability, it will help instill a love for books and reading.

I always tell my students that the best way to increase their reading ability is to simply read. These books will foster that love of reading and create the excitement of being rewarded with a book.
