Step Into Reading Level 3

Help me give my students Step Into Reading Level 3 Books for the library.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Schlein's classroom raised $293

This project is fully funded

My Project

My school library just opened in January of this year. We are working to build a collection of books that are of high interest to our students.

Some of my younger students are just learning how to read.

Providing students with books that are fun, fast, and easy is my goal in life.

These requested books are perfect for my readers since they are leveled and focus on skills that early readers are learning.

Please help build this collection of Step Into Reading Leveled books in our school library! Thank you for your support!
