Rocket Our Reading in Kindergarten!

Help me give my students a brand new leveled library to help them learn to read!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Madden's classroom raised $464

My Project

In kindergarten, my students are learning to read and they need books at their level to help them feel successful and to be able to apply all the new reading skills they have learned!

Seeing all of the new skills students have learned "click" as they take off reading is such a rewarding experience as a teacher!

I am able to watch as students learn the foundational skills needed to read and how that helps students be successful as they continue to build upon that foundation! Giving students books at their own reading level will help them reach their highest potential!
