My Project

These new picture books will continue to enhance the print-rich library that I strive to create. Our library is a place that students really enjoy coming to! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunity to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind. Over the years I have watched what books the students are taking out and asking to read. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time. They will also be able to choose books that interest them.

The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading.

My students already have shown an astonishing interest in reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
