My Project

I am in my first year of teaching our Education and Training classes at LHS and I am working on building my classroom library for my students that are aspiring teachers. In many of my courses, we are working on units that teach them how to create lesson plans that engage and inspire students, and the use of these read-aloud books would give them tools to utilize in our district's elementary school classrooms.

They will pick books to plan lessons and activities with that will give them first-hand experience into the world of teaching and lesson planning.
