My Project

My students get to choose their own novels from a list for each unit in our class. However, it is challenging and costly to always have the most high interest and challenging books available. Your donation will help my students get the novels they need to help us with our units. Studies show that students are more successful when they have a choice in which texts they can read. With these novels, my students will have more choices for novels to read for their units in 8th grade ELA class.
