My Project

My students have requested most of these books! The others are for our school's curriculum. My classroom library is growing but so is my student's love for books.

The spark that my students earn when reading new books, is something that I am very proud to see.

The students have taken the time to get a list of books together that they would like to read and have in our classroom library. Most of these are the books that they, as a class, have hand chosen. The rest of our books help me teach lessons that go with our curriculum.
