My Project

I have been working on building a new and improved classroom library. These selections are books that help to inspire the kids to believe in yourself and to be proud of who you are... to be AMAZING!

These books are focused on helping my kiddos be proud of who they are and helps to encourage them to see how be-YOU-tiful they truly are!

An improved library will help engage the students and keep them interested in reading! Reading is so instrumental in the foundation of education and having books that the students are interested in is the basic building block of engaging kids in reading. Having a variety of books will allow them to explore and find books that they will enjoy reading.

Building a diverse library has been a goal for awhile, so thank you for helping me to build the best one I can for my kiddos!
