My Project

These books will continue to enhance the classroom library. My classroom library is a place my students enjoy. I read to them daily and they read independently! Every student book in my library is treated with love and care. All of these books have been chosen with our social studies standards in mind. Students will be able to learn more about social studies.

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level.

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 independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
