My Project

I have been teaching for 32 years and have amassed an amazing collection of books. The problem has always been in storing them and sorting them and making them easily available to my students.

My kids LOVE to read and they love the array of choices I have in my classroom, but there are just so many that they cannot easily get to them nor can I organize them in a way that makes them easy to find books on specific topics.

Rolling two-sided book carts are a deal changer in every way!

To be able to sort our books the way they are in public libraries would give my kids so much more time to actually read instead of spending their time searching. Being able to move the carts to different parts of the room easily instead of lugging bins would be wonderful. And think about summer storage and the time saved packing up and then unpacking each year.

Please help my class experience the joy of easily accessible books and give them more actual reading time!

Ms. Pace will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 24.
