  • Book Clubs for Distance Learning

    Funded Aug 8, 2020

    Thank you so much for donating to my project. I'm very excited to be doing book clubs with my students this year. The author of these books, Gordan Norman, was such a hit in my class last year. I know they will be one again too. We appreciate you all!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Githens

  • We Need Diverse Books!

    Funded Jul 6, 2020

    Thank you so much for funding my classroom! I'm very excited to have a class library with a more diverse selection. This is so important because my students need to see themselves in the books. Representation matters. We are super excited to read these books this upcoming school year! :)”

Distance Learning has been stressful on everyone, especially the students. A good book can escape from the stressful time we are in now and is one of the non tech learning strategies that can be utilized during this time. As a teacher in Los Angeles many of my students don't have access to a lot of books. I need a larger library to send home meaningful books to my students to close this reading gap. Diverse books in particular will allow my students to connect to text and will make reading a more personal experience. Thank you for the support!
