Thank you to the following investor for funding this grant.
Spurlino Foundation - $317.84
Project Goal
Students will read the 22-23 SSYRA books and complete a project.
How Project Benefits Students
I would like 2 copies of each of the books so that my students can have access to them. This project will broaden my readers' minds.
The SSYRA website states that, "The Sunshine State Young Readers Award (SSYRA) Program is a statewide reading motivational program for students in grades 3 through 8. The purpose of the SSYRA Program is to encourage students to read independently for pleasure and to read books that are on, above, and below their reading level in order to improve their reading fluency. Sunshine State books are selected for their wide appeal, literary value, varied genres, curriculum connections, and/or multicultural representation.
Expected Outcome(s)
Independent reading for pleasure (wide appeal to the books)
-improve reading fluency through variety of Lexile levels
-students will be exposed to a variety of genres and multicultural representations
-exposure to new authors and series (most of these are the first in a series) which would encourage more reading
Detailed Cost Summary
I based the prices off of Amazon prime. I did 2 copies of each book. (I put multiple books on one line to save space). Some books didn't have a paper copy option. Because I will be using Amazon Prime to order the books, there will be no shipping fee.
