My Project

I have been working on building a new and improved classroom library. Many of the books that I have are old and falling apart.

An improved library will help engage the students and keep them interested in reading.

Reading is so instrumental in the foundation of education and having books that the students are interested in is the basic building block of engaging kids in reading. Having a variety of books will allow them to explore and find books that they will enjoy reading.

Building a diverse library has been a goal for a while, so thank you for helping me to build the best one I can for my kiddos!
