My Project

My amazing students in my classroom love to read! I enjoy seeing the excitement on their faces when they find a new book that was added to our classroom library. Every year, I ask my students what kind of new books they want added to our classroom library. This bookshelf will allow our students to see a variety of book covers easily, choose what interests them, and take pride in keeping the library organized.

The requested bookshelf will increase the learning environment by organizing the books and making it easier for students to pick their favorite stories to read.

The donation of this bookshelf will make a huge difference in motivating all students no matter their reading abilities to pick books to increase their fluency.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
