My Students

I urge you to help us buy interesting books for my classroom and my students! We really need some new, interesting books that they can dive into! I try everyday to inspire them to read, but I have a limited amount of books, and these books would help them gain interest!

This particular group of students are unique.

Most of them are reading below their age level and are trying to learn how to become better readers. If they had these books, they would have books that were interesting and appropriate for them to read. I also have students who hate reading, I am sure that some of these new books will help to spark an interest!

My Project

Each one of these books I have chosen are books that my students specifically asked for. I hope by ordering/receiving books they asked for, it will increase their ability to read and even inspire them to read more! If they can find a book to latch onto, that would be absolutely great! These new books will help my classroom a lot and will eventually help them to become better readers. They may even begin to like reading!

This donation will make a difference because it will inspire my students to read and to become better readers.

I hope that we can receive these new books as they will be able to open themselves to a wonderful world of reading!
