My Project

Second graders are trying to find what they like about reading as they are improving their reading skills. Through a diverse library they are able to find books they enjoy and find their love for reading.

With a diverse library my students will be able to learn about people in history, as well as adventures, and more about people who look like or do not look like them.

Giving students the opportunity to learn and find what they enjoy about reading helps them in many ways throughout life. Being able to support readers at different levels also allows me to help my students find something they enjoy and can understand.
