Roblox Books for Reluctant Readers

Help me give my students Roblox books to find joy in reading by diving deep into their interest in Roblox video games!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. McLennan's classroom raised $177

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our classroom is full of curious, energetic 5th grade students who love playing Roblox. To harness their excitement and turn it into a lifelong passion for reading, we want to create a special collection of high-interest Roblox-themed books for independent reading time.

Many of our students struggle to find books that truly capture their attention and motivate them to read on their own.

By providing engaging Roblox guidebooks and novels, we will connect reading with something they already love—gaming! These books will meet students where their interests are, helping reluctant readers dive into stories and informational texts with enthusiasm.

With new Roblox books, students will be excited to pick up a book during independent reading time, improving their reading skills naturally and joyfully. They will explore stories about their favorite game worlds, learn tips and tricks, and even discover the basics of game design, sparking creativity and critical thinking.

Your generous donation will help us build a library of high-interest Roblox books that inspires our students to become passionate, confident readers. Together, we can empower them to develop literacy skills that will benefit them in school and beyond. Thank you for supporting our readers and helping us make reading fun and relevant!
