My Project

I teach K-5 grade, academically gifted students. My children are bright, curious, optimistic, determined, talented, and full of energy. They are always eager to learn something new and approach daily challenges with positive attitudes.

My students would greatly benefit from having additional classroom books to read during independent reading time to earn AR points and to promote pleasure reading--reading something they love!

I love to provide as many books as possible for my students to read. Since I teach 86 students, it can be difficult to have enough materials for everyone to use when they need them. I would greatly appreciate additional resources for my 3-5 grade elementary AG students to use.
