We Love Reading Books!

Help me give my students these classroom favorites to grow their love of reading!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Foster's classroom raised $1,251

My Project

As the years pass, there are a few read alouds that remain classroom favorites. Even as we introduce new texts, we can rest assured that David Goes To School will always give our preschoolers a good laugh and plenty of takeaways on how to navigate a classroom and school building. The first few weeks of school can be very scary and overwhelming for preschoolers, so having these books can help them relate to the characters and ease their nerves.

I want to give each of my students their very own copy of David Goes To School and other read alouds they can read in class and take home to share with their families!

Literacy is power and starts with a love of books. Please help me give my young students these amazing books and I know without a doubt they will be excited to share these stories with their families and friends!
