Stories and Snacks for Summer

Help me give my students stories and snacks to prepare for the best summer.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Blackmon's classroom raised $621

My Project

Help me give my students books they can enjoy during their time away from school. I enjoy providing stories for my students to read in and out of the classroom. I find that books are a great way to get students ready for the next school year.I also want them to have snacks while reading. They are very sweet students and I would like to keep them sweet by giving them sugary treats they can enjoy during reading breaks in the classroom as well as snacks to take home for the summer.

Reading books will help to keep them engaged throughout the summer break.

While students are away from school they will have an opportunity to continue to practice and stretch their reading.
