Book Groups Need Books!

Funded Nov 9, 2009

Thank you all so very much for donating these wonderful books to our classroom. It was a great opportunity for many students to read other people's stories and be able to connect with them in a variety of ways. One student in particular, who has not had much success with reading, read (and completed) his book, that, as he put it: "made me think a lot."

Several students were not looking forward to this project when we first went over it as a class, but I can safely say that every student got something positive out of their experience reading these different memoirs. The best part is that I have had students tell me this themselves.

Thank you again for your generous donations. Each one of you has made a difference in the lives my students. ”

With gratitude,

Mr. Kessler
