My Project

The books I am requesting will build a strong Pre-K library filled with stories that match our learning themes and celebrate diversity.

My goal is to create a classroom library that invites students to fall in love with books and reading.

I want my students to have easy access to stories. These books will support early reading skills, spark imagination, and help students make connections to the world around them.

My Pre-K students are full of energy, creativity, and endless curiosity. They come to school excited to learn, explore, and share their ideas. They are special because they bring unique perspectives and joyful enthusiasm to every story we read and every lesson we share.
