My Project

I am so grateful to the donors of www.donorschoose.org for supplying my original classroom library. After seeing what kids were looking for I am seeking to expand the library to include more popular middle school titles, such as the Hunger Games, Percy Jackson, Charles Dickens, Anne Frank, etc. I want to be able to expose my students to both contemporary and classic literature acceptable for middle schoolers. I hope this will spark the love of reading in them that it did in me as a middle schooler.

We have a regular weekly "Drop Everything and Read" events that gets the students reading uninterrupted for at least 15 minutes.

They need access to great book selections throughout the middle school and I want to be one to provide it. Working in a high school that had a middle school added to it, our library is geared towards older students. My library will have titles more appropriate for middle school aged students.

Grades 6-8
