We Love to Read!

Help me give my students new books to help keep their love for reading alive!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Metcalf's classroom raised $272

This project is fully funded

My Project

My third graders are becoming good little readers and are ready to move on from picture books to chapter books. The books I have selected will allow my students to develop the necessary skills, confidence, and love of reading that will put them on the path to becoming successful lifelong readers. We have some chapter books in our classroom library, but my students are flying through them. They will be very excited to get new engaging books to get lost in! It's important to keep our library full of new books that will keep their spark to read alive!
