Build a Better Class Library

Funded Jan 21, 2022

This was very impactful this school year. Students in my class never wanted for something to read. They were often able to have more than one book at their desk. Because there was such high interest in these books, students were motivated to read them. The thing that students didn't want to miss, even on the last day of school was silent reading time. This was particularly impactful for some of my struggling readers. It can be difficult for them in 3rd grade to want to read, because the books they can read often look like smaller books. With the books that I purchased, there were many easier read chapter books, so they were able to read books, and recommend them to class mates, even though they were easier reads.”
