Holiday Library

Help me give my students an extended classroom library by adding holiday books.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Palermo's classroom raised $160

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help me expand my classroom library by giving my students holiday books to choose from. My students love to read and pick books from the classroom library. They enjoy listening to read alouds on the carpet read by the teacher, not YouTube.

Holidays are a fun time to celebrate with my students, and incorporating holiday stories is my goal for this year.

My students enjoy seeing the actual books and passing them around to their classmates. They love seeing the vibrant colors and enjoy listening to my dramatic reading of the stories.
