Because the majority of teens are watching videos rather than reading these days, a primary goal in my classroom this year is to make reading accessible and adventurous--to make students fall in love with reading again.
In order to reach this goal, I'm asking for your help to update my classroom library.
I've compiled a selection from South Carolina Junior Book Award nominees, Young Adult Book Award nominees, and other book award winners to create this project on Donor's Choose. If you can help, my students and I say thank you.
DonorsChoose is the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
As a teacher-founded nonprofit, we're trusted by thousands of teachers and supporters across the country. This classroom request for funding was created by Ms. Paeschke and reviewed by the DonorsChoose team.
