My Project

My students need access to a larger selection of engaging, meaningful texts that they can use during their book club time.

They love working in book clubs and discussing their reading with each other, and these books will allow them to have deep conversations about characters, relationships, and themes.

I want them to be able to access different points of view, different lifestyles and cultures, and different ways of seeing the world. They're a special group of students and they deserve a special group of books from which to learn!
