My Students

I teach in an amazingly diverse school district with the most incredible group of children. They are smart and funny little First Graders that deserve the best instruction possible. Watching students go on an adventure through a story wether it is me reading it to them or them reading themselves, is one of the highlights of my day and one of my favorite things to watch my students do. This project will help my students to do this in an organized and efficient way.

My Project

Hi! My name is Miss O'Donnell and I LOVE BOOKS What do I love more than books? Books in the hands of my students! This mobile library cart and these bright book bins will allow my students to easily access books on THEIR level which is integral to reading being enjoyable for students. With limited classroom storage and a teacher that CANNOT stop buying books for her classroom library, this cart would be a game changer for both myself and my students this upcoming school year. I am embarking on the amazing journey of working with a co-teacher this year and having this extra storage space in the classroom would have a positive impact for teachers and students in our shared classroom.
