My Project

I want my kids to read more! They need to discover the joy that reading can bring. I love these magazines and I know that my students would love them too! They are too expensive for me to buy them myself, so I could use your help. I want to expand their knowledge of the world. I believe that reading more will help them to gain a love of books and the written word. They don’t know what they don’t know. They don’t yet know how much fun reading can be. Help me to help them! I truly appreciate all help!
