My Project
My students are enthusiastic, curious, and eager to explore the world through books. They come from diverse backgrounds, with many learning English as a second language, and our library is a space where they can discover new ideas, build confidence, and develop a lifelong love of reading.
I love how curious and enthusiastic my students are when it comes to learning about animals.
Whether they’re fascinated by sharks, pandas, or insects, they light up when they discover new facts. These books will support research projects and help students learn how to find and use information. With engaging visuals and accessible text, these resources will spark inquiry and support literacy for all readers.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
