My Project
My students love to read. On the first day of school, they excitedly hunt through my collection of young adult novels, classics, science fiction, fantasy, memoir, graphic novels, and poetry to choose their independent reading books. I work hard to add to my classroom library to keep it exciting and fresh and full of the books that they want to read most. However, I don't have the bookshelf space for all the books that I've added.
These three bookshelves will help make my classroom warm and inviting, a space that promotes and celebrates reading.
With your help, I can organize and display over 500 books. These shelves will help me create a classroom library that my students will keep coming back to check for new books.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
