Investor
Thank you to the following investor for funding this grant.
In Memory of Amy Snyder from Lisa & Glenn Church - $407.00
Goal
My goal is to create a Reader Leader club
Category
School-Wide, Grade-Level, Or Class Events/Programs - Parent Nights, Honor Roll Celebrations, EOY Events, PBIS, LIM, etc.
What will be done with my students
I will create a Leader In Me Reader Leader Club consisting of up to 30 students grade K-3.
During the club time students will have an opportunity to read independently, listen to picture book read alouds and learn about different book genres.
Each club meeting will have a different theme. Some examples are flashlight reading, sleepover (read with pillows and blankets), buddy reading etc. This year I'd like to add a new theme: Glow in the Dark Reading
Every student will receive a custom reader leader shirt that they can wear on club days. These shirts will give the students a sense of pride in being one of the school's Reader Leaders.
At the end of the year each student will receive a book of their choosing that will be theirs to keep and add to their home library.
Benefits to my students
This club will be an additional opportunity for my avid readers to enjoy reading and sharing books in a leisurely and fun setting.
Budget Narrative
These supplies are enough to get us through an entire year of club meetings. The blacklights and wall hanging are not consumable and will be able to be used again in the future
