My Project

My students would love to read the sequel to Frindle! It is something they have enjoyed, and the author has just come out with the sequel, Frindle Files, which they can’t wait to get their hands on! Having a few copies for them to enjoy would be such a great addition to our classroom library.

We would also love to have some classroom snacks for times when students need a little something to keep their bellies full.

It is a long school day, and having a little snack can be helpful.
