My Project

Scholars love for reading come from their daily exposure of books they have interest in. For younger scholars, if they see a cover of a book that shows illustrations they could relate to, that's even better and catches their attention. Diverse books are important for young scholars to see themselves in characters and understand that the color of someone's skin doesn't determine what they can or cannot achieve. I want to create an equitable library in my classroom for scholars to have access to whenever they step in my classroom. Thank you for reading.
