Recently, I applied for a Donors Choose grant (www.donorschoose.org) and received full funding within a week. This website is wonderful in providing classroom materials to teachers. For this grant, the students received 9 book sets! I am so excited to begin reading with them as a group and going through the process of creating a love of reading. The titles include some of my personal favorites:
Little Women by: Louisa May Alcott
Hatchet by: Gary Paulsen
The Cay by: Theodore Taylor
The Outsiders by: S. E. Hinton
The Giver by: Lois Lowry
Charlotte's Web by: E.B. White
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by: C.S. Lewis
Holes by: Louis Sachar
The Island of the Blue Dolphins by: Scott O' Dell
This grant provides over $350 worth of books to the OCS Program which is a wonderful thing for our students to have!
