My Students

Creekwood Middle School students in Kingwood, TX are rekindling their love of reading. Each Language Arts class has started to incorporate independent reading time with choice novels. We hear students in the hallway, at lunch, and outside talking about their books and we are creating a new literacy rich culture. We would like to provide them plenty of worlds to escape to.

My Project

Students need choice and current on trend novels to select from. We are building our classroom libraries to help drive our push for literacy. Competing with video games and cell phones is a tough sell, but just that one perfect book can ultimately leave a life long impression that might just create a spark and rekindle their love of reading.

These novels will be accessible to our entire student body through their RELA/Reading classrooms.

We have incorporated independent reading at the beginning of each Language Arts class and we would like to provide BOOKS GALORE!
