Help Us Organize Our Readers Workshop

My students need a class set of book boxes and an organizer so that they can easily store and access their individual, leveled books.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 first grade students are reading like crazy in our Readers Workshop, but we really need a nicer place to keep and organize all of our leveled reading books for each student.

My students are in the first grade at an under-funded, inner city public school in northern California.

They come from very diverse backgrounds, but they are all excited about learning to read on their own! We have a wide range of reading levels and I want to be able to give each of them their own special book box for their own set of books.

My Project

Right now we are using cardboard boxes to hold our books and many of them are beat up and falling apart. They need to be replaced every year, whereas these sturdy boxes will last for many years and benefit thousands of students. Would you be more excited about getting your books out of a ratty, old cardboard box or a bright, shiny, colorful box with your name on it?

Details are so important when creating an environment for learning to read.

When we provide new, quality materials we send a message to the students about how much we value reading. A quiet, bright, comfortable space; interesting and challenging books in good condition; and a special place to keep those books organized -- the ones that belong only to them. Help us create that reading environment so these students can have the very best possible start in forming strong reading habits.
