The World Belongs to Those Who Read
Funded Dec 17, 2019Thank you so much for supporting my goal to get more books into my students' hands. With your help, I was able to purchase several sets of books. My students were just thrilled when the books arrived. As a matter of fact, we had a big unboxing party. You should have heard the squeals as we opened each package unveiling all our new reads. I heard many kids saying things such as, " I can't wait to read THIS one!"
In my classroom each day we have a time dedicated to reading. Each child has their very own book box. I call students to the back table and introduce a book to a small group. We read it together and discuss it. Then , that night they take it home and read it to a parent. The next day they come back and read it to me again. After that ,they are allowed to keep the book in their book box to keep practicing. They LOVE to get more and more books added to their book box.
All my students seem to have a love for books but I have a few kids that are into the challenge of constantly trying to find a harder book to read. That's why it's so important to have a variety of levels in my library. This project helped me with that greatly. We can't thank you enough!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Riggs
