My Project

Greetings, I am Ms. Frazier, a 4th-grade ELA teacher. At our school, we have unique and motivated dreamers who have a love for reading. Currently, our class library has books that are a bit dated. My dreamers are interested in checking out books from the classroom library to take home to read weekly. Our library needs revamping because it lacks books my dreamers are interested in.

I want to build a library that sparks the interest of ALL of my students.

Because reading is dreaming with your eyes open, your generosity would be greatly appreciated with this fun project promoting reading and literacy for my little dreamers.
