My Project

Over the last few weeks, I have been blown away by the generosity of donors contributing to a long list of books I requested for my English Language Development classroom.

I need book shelves that are at the correct height for my students, and with shelves that will allow me to organize texts by subject and culture!

With an extremely limited school budget, I am using a patched together assortment of furniture I have sourced from all over the neighborhood. Having a cohesive set of shelves in my classroom to organize student books would create a more welcoming space, and draw children in to engage with these amazing texts!
