Diversity in Books

Help me give my students books which allow them to see characters that look like them.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Jackson's classroom raised $213

My Project

Many of the students in my class do not have books at home to enjoy. English is their second language. I would like to share books with them that have characters that mirror their lives with positive themes such as perseverance, bravery and having a positive self concept. The students come from various countries from around the world. The books will allow them to make connections, increase vocabulary, acquire English, and expose them to rich literature. I am hoping that students will be motivated to read and develop a love of reading.
