Celebrate This Week: A Generous Donation


Ruth Ayres hosts a link-up every week in order to celebrate all the great happenings.  You can find other celebrations at Discover. Play. Build.

This week I am celebrating the fact that my Donors Choose project was funded.  I created a project in which I requested funds for chapter books so that I can encourage my readers to engage in more independent reading.  I chose one or two titles in a number of chapter books series that I think will be of high interest to my readers.  I am very grateful to have received a generous donation that allowed my projected to be funded.  The books are already on their way.  Once I have them I plan on doing some book talks to get students interested in reading the books.  I am looking forward to sharing these books with my students and hearing what they think about them.  These are some of the books I requested:


This is the second Donors Choose project that I have had funded in order to get reading materials for my students.  I am very appreciative for the donors who check out these projects and donate.  The organization provides a great option for teachers in need of resources and materials for their classrooms.  For more information check out the website.
