Hi there, I’m Lisa and I teach 1st grade. Children are taught how to read at school, but during this time of social distancing, I will no longer be able to share my library. I teach in a very rural community and some of these students' only exposure to books are in the teacher's classroom. Can you help me give my students the opportunity to grow their own library to help foster the love of reading? I have 22 students in my class this year. I want to send each child home with three books so that each child expands their own library with one fiction...read more book and two nonfiction books. My target is to raise $400 to purchase books to send home with students. Growing lifelong readers is the goal of my class—and your donation will help do just that! Thank you!read less
