My Project

Literacy is key. Books play a role in the lives of middle school students as they provide access to ideas, different realms, and varying viewpoints. They ignite creativity, boost language skills, and promote thinking. By delving into books, students delve into cultures, historical periods, and scientific principles, fostering empathy and a broader perspective of the world they inhabit.

These books, bookshelf, and bookmarks will help me continue to hone my craft so I can be the best teacher I can be for my kids!

Modeling lifelong learning is a great way to show my kids the importance of education through my actions. I hope this is the beginning of our excellent classroom library. Thank you so much for considering supporting my classroom.

Never Before Funded Grades 6-8
