Funded Feb 25, 2025The Campbell Foundation is awesome! Thank you for these funny, new books that my students love to read. So far my class has read 1,500 books. We are in the 4th quarter and our new goal is to reach 2,500 by the end of the year. My students love reading the Pete The Cat series of books. The vibrant pictures, use of high frequency words, and funny content encourages even reluctant readers to pick up these books.
At the beginning of the year, the class average was a 0.4 reading level. Now my students are reading at a 1.6 reading level. By the end of the year, we hope we will reach a 2.3 level or higher! Thank you for your generous gift of 22 books that are perfect for my first grade readers. Students are trading books and taking some outside for recess. After reading the book two times. they take a comprehension quiz on the computer. I am proud to announce that 16 students have an accuracy of 85% or higher. Your gift of books is encouraging more students to read. Thank you, Campbell Foundation for your kindness and generosity! My students are blossoming into confident and fluent readers!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Kunzler
