Books a Million: in Need of Sprucing Up My Classroom
Hooray! This project is fully funded
Celebrate Black Teachers and Students
This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
Hi, I am a 3rd grade teacher. This is my second year in the classroom and Im in need of new books for my classroom library. My students last year used hand me down books that were given to me. I am very appreciative of what I have, however I would love to have books that will engage my students.
There are a few more things that would make our classroom better such as pencils and paper. I just want to make my classroom an inviting place for my students. Thank you very much.
