My students need high interest new books to keep them reading. The more titles I can hand them, the more chance I have of hooking a reader.

My Students
My students are typically struggling students, who start the year as self proclaimed non-readers. They are often those who have failed standardized tests or been failed by the system.
By trying to pair each student with the right books, I can foster an interest in reading with an end goal of helping develop a life-long love of reading.
Many of these challenged students have never seen the world outside their own town. Helping them expand their background knowledge can lead to an appreciation of reading and open up whole new worlds of opportunity and exploration.
My Project
Books, books everywhere. Many of my students do not own books. In my classroom I want to have books everywhere. Students who are self professed non-readers have not given reading a chance. If I can pair the right book with the right student, I have a chance of hooking interest and creating a reader. In order to do that on a regular basis, I need new titles that are high interest. I need several books to pack my book shelves so that options are available. They need to see books, books everywhere so they can pick up several and "try them on for size."
