My Project
In order to incorporate independent reading into my history curriculum, I have been collecting books that pertain to the time periods and topics covered in my AP U.S. History, World History, and Human Geography classes. So far I have collected over 1,400 books and continually receive more donations. The only problem is, I need more bookshelves to display the books for my students so they can easily browse through them.
I had previously gotten some sturdy metal shelves that we then promptly filled.
The nice thing about the shelves that I have is as I get more books, I can just add additional shelves to them. I started off with 5 shelves in each but now I need additional shelves so I can have 7 shelves in each.
These additional shelves should be what I need to display the rest of the books that we have.
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
