In today’s ever increasing digital world, kids tend to form a disconnect with the simple written word. This disconnect is evident in our continuously dropping literacy scores. With the addition of current and comprehensive texts, our students could research the old fashion way by reading and finding their way. No word finder, no google, no specific search criteria, just reading and searching for answers. Hardcover books would give a much needed break from the screen that studies have shown to have a harsh impact on both the brain and the eyes of children. These books would be an amazing start to the grand library we envision for the science department easily accessible right in our classrooms.
