We Need Better Books, For Real
Funded Jan 7, 2019
Thank you so much for all your donations, your shares, and your kind words! I sincerely believe this will make a huge impact. I'll keep you posted.
I can't wait to see my students gobble up these books instead of struggle through the books we currently have that are simply not at their level.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Vera

It has been proven over and over again that independent reading bridges the achievement gap. If I can get my students hooked on reading, their literacy skills will improve and their performance will increase in every subject area! I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I can get my students to read, but I need variety and quantity to accomplish this goal. We don't have a school library and of the books we do have, most are not relatable to my kids. I plan to share these books with my students, my co-teachers, and hopefully with the entire school community.
