My Project
My classroom is in need of one big ticket item and that is a brand new bookshelf. My classroom and students have been so lucky to receive many new books this school year. This, in turn, has created a unique problem in our classroom.
Our classroom library needs more room to store all of our new books!
Our bookshelves have run out space and a new bookcase is desperately needed. This bookshelf was chosen for multiple reasons. First, it is an appropriate height for my second graders to use independently. Second, this bookshelf is durable and will last for a while. Kids- as a whole- aren’t known for taking the best care of items long term. Therefore, in order to make this bookcase last we definitely need something of good quality that’s durable.
