Classic Seuss!

My Project

My students enjoy visiting the library. They love being read to and reading with others. However, their favorite part of the visit is selecting books for independent reading. It is simply amazing to see their faces light up when they find something that sparks their interest. My goal is to continue providing books and opportunities that will spark their interest and create a life-long love of reading.

My project is to enhance students’ interest in Seuss classics by building the library's collection and providing literacy programming for Read Across America Week.

To enhance students’ interest, I plan to send guest readers into classrooms on March 2nd to read Seuss books to students. As an extension of the guest readers activity, I am going to host a book-tasting event in the library during Read Across America week where students can sample other Seuss classics. This will allow them to explore, familiarize themselves, and locate Seuss books that will be available for checkout after our Read Across America Week initiative.

My current collection of Seuss classics is extremely small, so I am asking you to please help me build this collection. I want to ensure that we have enough copies of each title for our Read Across America Week program. Most importantly, I want to guarantee that we have enough copies in the collection for students to continue to explore, enjoy, and checkout for their reading pleasure beyond Read Across America Week.

Thank you in advance for your support.
