My Project

For this proposal, I am requesting books to help fill my shelves in our classroom library! These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create.

My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy—they complete their Synergy Squad work there, read independently, and even cool down on the beanbags previously funded through Donorschoose.org.

Every book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and my students are thankful for the opportunities to read.

When my students learn about the generosity of donors, feel a sense of worth and pride.

All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind. I encourage them to ask me for specific books for the library, and these books are some of the most highly-requested publications in our reading Academy!
