Wild Reading About a Robot

Help me give my students access to a novel study for a newer book!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Wertz's classroom raised $388

My Project

I teach a wide range of students reading level wise as well as interest wise. Many of my students struggle to read independently. I like to read to and with them as much as possible, but with a limited supply of class sets of books, it is difficult. Plus, many of the books we have class sets of are older.

I want to instill a love of reading by having more class novel studies.

This set will allow us to complete a novel study on a newer book. It also is a sci-fi novel which will peak the interest of many of my students. Help me teach my students to love reading by donating towards my project!
