We Are Readers!

Help me give my students the gift of books and reading.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Fontenot's classroom raised $236

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our classroom library is in need of an overhaul. Many of our books have been read, loved, and reread to the point that they are quite literally falling apart. The items on this list cover a wide range of interests and reading levels to ensure that my 5th graders have enjoyable options to select for their reading time.

These books will either replace books that have been taken off of the shelves to recycle (as they were falling apart), or add to our shelves to encompass all reading levels found in the classroom.

My students love to read and your help will ensure we meet our goals.
