My Project

My students need a variety of books to learn the concepts of print. Spot books, lift the flap books, Dragons Love Tacos, Gruffalo and How to Catch a Mermaid and Unicorn are much loved books. Having a classroom library gives students access to age-appropriate books. Having books they love in the room compels them to read. Early readers begin by telling stories from what they see in pictures. They then recognize letters, words, and then simple sentences. Books inspire imagination, discussion, and language. Having a classroom library is a treasure.

You should see the way students light up when it's time to hear a story to understand the amazing impact a book has.

Many of these students don't have books at home. This is their chance to experience the wonder a story can give. Please consider a donation to our classroom library.
