I am a first year teacher and building a classroom library that makes students interested and fall in love with reading has always been a goal. These books are books that I loved growing up and also books that my students have recommended. My hope for this library is that it is filled with books that are loved and books that excite students.
Students want to read when the right adventure is in front of them.
These books have adventure, they have mystery, and they have identity. These books will help garner student desire and pursuit to build their reading skills and open their mind to new genres they might not have wanted to think about!
Nearly all 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
