My Project

Sparking a love for reading is a goal for every student that comes through my door. My children are needing to find an interest that will engage them in a love for reading.

Having fun, exciting books based on their interest will help them want to read more and to fall in love with literacy.

We need to provide a variety of resources such as book like 'Fart Quest" and other graphic novels that will place them in a world of imagination while supporting their learning.

I need to add new, and exiting books in classroom library that will provide ample opportunities to pick up a book to enjoy. After all, it is my goal that I want them to become life long leaders. thank you for helping supply these resources for my children.

Thank, you
