Just Keep On Reading

Help me give my students books to motivate them to keep on reading

My Project

We are in the third trimester of third grade and my students need some motivation to keep on reading.

Funding this project for my class will help to motivate my students by exposing them to new genres, interests, and authors.

I am asking for books to add to our class library that my students have shared they have an interest of reading. The stickers and bookmarks will be provided as incentives for reading. Timers will be used to help build reading fluency. The TPT gift card will provide my students with supplementary activities to accompany the books they read. The book stand will provide a spotlight on books students can read.

    This project will reach 25 students.
