Show it, Share it! A New Home for our Books

Help me give my students a brand new classroom library bookshelf! Having access to a brand new book shelf will help us display the hundreds of books we read each year in Kindergarten!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Porcaro's classroom raised $215

My Project

This new book shelf will create a warm library environment for our hundreds of books we read throughout the year in Kindergarten! Our current bookshelf broke and we have our books in bins on the floor. A new home for our books would help make the library area a more attractive and desired area to be for our students who are beginning this first year of school in Kindergarten this month! This will help us display our books that are part of our curriculum and give children a chance to explore different genres of books that are on display in our new book shelf in our library area.
