Everyone loves to read naturally, but for some it is a matter of finding the right book. According to Nancy Atwell, a foundational author on teaching writing and reading, students need access to different types of texts that speak to them. As a result, I have hand selected dozens of texts for our classroom library that can inspire my students. In committing to invest in my classroom, rest assured that these books will be well-taken care of and absolutely loved by my students. These are students who aspire to be doctors and lawyers, computer scientists and detectives, teachers and community activitsts. As a result, I aspire to provide their minds with the fodder that will nurture their growing intellects. Some books provide easier-to-understand introductions to higher level concepts like logic and philosophy in a graphic novel format. Other books can spark a love for reading, or an obsessive curiosity to learn the entire human anatomy by studying Medical School, or Law School materials. These are the kinds of books that will change my student's lives. Thank you for your consideration!
