My Project

The goal of our book recommendation library is to empower students to make meaningful book recommendations to their friends. A diverse and expanded collection of books will enhance the reading experiences of our students and foster a vibrant culture of sharing and recommending books among peers.

Our second grade readers have identified the books on our list as some of their favorite book series and are excited to start a book recommendation library.

Your support for this book recommendation library will enhance the reading experiences of our students and empower them to become enthusiastic book recommenders and have a positive impact on the literacy journey of each student in our classroom
