Hello Monroe Family and Friends,
Mrs. Webb created a DonorsChoose.org classroom request to help assist her in making sure her students have the materials they need to succeed.
My students need a variety of books for our classroom library.
Students are often overwhelmed walking into a school or local library. There are thousands of books to choose from, all arranged by author, and students don't know where to begin. I want to help students find books they will enjoy and not make it feel like a chore.
"Reading should not be presented to children as a chore or duty.It should be offered to them as a precious gift." —Kate DiCamillo
In a classroom library, I am able to organize books by genre, author, and series. This type of environment makes it easier for students to find books they are interested in. In addition, I can display books that go along with a topic we are studying in class or that I think students may be interested in.
By purchasing these books, it will expose students to other books besides what is offered through Scholastic Book Clubs. While Scholastic is a wonderful resource, they are only able to offer books by certain authors and publishers. There are thousands of novels that students are not even exposed to.
In addition, to helping students find books, I want to build their excitement with reading. Two activities I would like to implement this year are "Book Tastings" and "Flashlight Fridays."
By clicking on the link below you can make a donation. Every little bit counts!

Thank you so much,
Mrs. Webb
P.S. If you know anyone who may want to help my students, please pass this along!
