A Good Book, Where Will It Take You?

Help me give my students an abundant selection of books to read. I want my students to love reading, and I want them to have a variety of novels and books to read. Help build my library.

My Students

What a wonderful question to answer, What I love about my students. I love them, I love that they have so much potential. I love that they want to learn. They need hugs and they want to please you.

I find that working with students, you can make their school experience one that they will cherish or you can crush them.

I choose to lift them up and make them have a great love for learning. I tell them the possibilities are endless on the things they can.

When I tell them the possibilities are endless, I absolutely mean that they can do anything they try to do. They just have to believe.

My Project

This year, I am trying to promote loving to read. Did you know that most students only read the books that are assigned. This year, I am trying to add lots of books to our class library. Why, you ask?...because if we have tons of books for them to choose from and we allow them to read books on their interest level,..Guess what will happen?...Yes, it will promote a love of reading.

With a love for reading comes more reading, When students read more they grow...They grow in knowledge.

Books can take you to faraway places, connect you with pirates, historical figures, mighty warriors, as well as peacemakers. There are books that teach how to make things, operate things. Oh my goodness. Help me get more books in this classroom. Donate today!!!
