My Project

In our classroom we love to read! I want to offer my students the ability to choose books that will speak to them. I want to encourage this with a well rounded and up to date classroom library. These books will offer students the chance to enjoy many unique series of books. These books will also allow the students to find a series they enjoy and be able to read the entire series without having to hunt for a missing book. The books that have been chosen give the students multiple series to explore.
