Building Our Classroom Library

Help me give my students some updated books for our classroom library. These books will benefit my three classes that have English and English learning readers. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Clarksville, IN Grades 3-5

My Project

I have the privilege of seeing our 110 5th grades throughout the day. When they are in my room, I give them opportunities to read the books they have checked out from our school library, as well as, the books that I keep in our classroom library. I am always looking to expand our classroom library with the latest books and with titles that interest the students.

In our classrooms, we have students on all levels, including English learning readers.

I want to provide those students with books on their reading level and in their language.
