My Project

Each year one of my joys is finding new and exciting books to add to my classroom library. As each new group comes to my classroom, I work hard to ensure that my library has both mirrors and windows for them.

If you're able, I would so appreciate if you could help me add some new and engaging texts, most of which have been chosen by my current students.

Each student was excited to suggest a title for their friends to read and for future 5th graders to enjoy. We are looking forward to sharing some amazing texts together.
