My Students
"I can't live without books," Thomas Jefferson said, and my students enjoy reciting this quote. My students are from a low social economic background and they need books to have for their home library.
We are a Title-One school located in Georgia.
I realize that most of our students don't have books at home. The purpose of the Book Drive is my students to have a home library. My students enjoy reading a variety of books. They like to respond to books orally and with written expression. I encourage my students to read with their parents and family members at home.
My Project
The Book Drive will promote lifelong readers and family involvement. Support from the community will bring up the students' morale. This project will increase family reading time, their reading levels, and reading as a hobby. The students will continue to respond to books and work toward their reading goals with this project. The students will become independent readers which will improve their standardized test scores. The students will learn the importance of reading and cherish their gift of reading.
This Book Drive will touch the lives of so many students in different ways.
The students will read more with the availability of books at home. This project will provide books for students to start their home library. Books will be a gift that the students will be able to open over and over again. The parents will read to or listen to their child read. This project will increase their reading levels and promote lifelong readers.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
