Help me give my students books on their reading level for our class library!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pereira's classroom raised $219
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day. My students are all different types of learners and have various backgrounds. I have students who do not speak English, students with disabilities, and some students who are homeless.
I teach at a Title I school in New York where 100 percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.
Many of my students receive food and clothing from the school's charity drives. Despite so many hardships, my students are eager to learn and do their best. They want to be in school because they want to learn all they can so they can be successful one day.
My Project
My students need books that are on their reading level to help them with their reading comprehension. As of now, most of the books in my classroom library are too difficult for the students to read.
My students need books on a lower reading level to build their confidence and encourage them to read more.
These books would help at least 21 students right away because they would be able to borrow these books to read in class and for homework. Having books that the students are able to read builds their capacity to read more frequently and for longer periods of time!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
