Goal

I am in desperate need for some 5th grade level and above books. I have lots of great readers but not enough books at their high levels. I will purchase books that have positive reviews, are at a high reading level, and appropriate for 5th graders.  

 

What will be done with my students

6 classes of students will be affected! I will purchase books that are Young Adult and labelled as such. This will create a special section for these advanced YA books. These books will be at a higher reading level than books we currently have.  

 

Benefits to my students

Currently there are not enough interesting and high level books for 5th grade students. I have a limited selection and students do not want to read the books I have. I need new, engaging, popular, highly rated, challenging books for them. This will motivate them to read. Plus special YA books that are just for 5th grade will be an exciting motivator. The more they read, the more they learn in all subject areas. Please support my high readers in growing!

I will evaluate my project by tracking the number of books checked out to 5th grade students. If the number increases so students are checking out new books each class time, then it will be successful.  

 

Budget Narrative

I will order books from Follett, totaling $1,000.00. These are high quality, hardback books from multiple publishers. Included in the cost will be a small fee for processing the books, which allows them to be ready for students to read quickly.
