Our school was lucky enough to receive funding for a book vending machine to help with our PBIS behavior system. Students can earn a gold token to insert into the machine to choose a book of their choice. The machine is here, and now we need to fill it! Research shows that growing up in a house full of books has a large, positive effect on literacy. I dream of providing books in my students' homes like I was fortunate enough to have growing up. Please help me provide my students with quality, high-interest books that they love. Help keep their love of reading going strong!
