My Project

My middle school students are curious and are so eager to learn about the world around them. They love having stories read to them and to look at pictures illustrating the world around them.

I would love to give them an inviting reading area where they can independently explore the world of reading during their free time.

I want the space to be inviting for students to be persuaded to take opportunities to explore reading and an opportunity for creative thinking.All of the books chosen will help their knowledge in other subjects as well.
