My Students

I have yet to meet this new group of 4th graders, as I am staring the second half of my teaching career in a new school this fall. Together we will dive into 4th grade with a shared excitement and curiosity because it will be new for all of us!

I want my classroom library to be a visual representation of the passion I have for reading and its ability to improve and enliven your life.

I want to put engaging, quality texts in their hands!

My Project

The books included in this project are high interest titles that will get kids excited about reading. These books range in levels of difficulty and cover multiple themes and topics.

The books included in this library will have kids wanting to come back for more!

They will be eager and excited to read from these sets and will have meaningful, thoughtful discussions with each other about them.

These books will help students learn about themselves as readers and develop skills and a love of reading that will last a lifetime. After reading these books, students will have a long list of new favorites!
