Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I'm looking for help in making a classroom library full of books that students actually desire to read. As the students look around the room, I'd like for them to see books and realize that reading is an awesome and worthwhile activity.

Students with greater book access have more chances to improve their vocabulary, would be more motivated to read, and have more amazing worlds to explore as they read!

While our school has an amazing library, I'd like for my classroom to be a place where reading is encouraged.
