My Project

When you were younger, was reading exciting and captivating for you? Did you get lost in a good book?! I want this to be a reality for the students in my classroom!

Now, after enduring an awfully, challenging pandemic, my students need these books more than ever!!

Help me bridge the gap of learning that was lost during this time! These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create.

My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy and feel safe in! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind-I have watched them the past few weeks of school read titles just like these, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time, as well as help them get back to a place of normalcy.

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level.

They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
