My Project

I've always been a reader, story time was always my favorite time! In my classroom I encourage my students to grab a book, look at the pictures, listen to stories, create their own! I think hearing stories and reading stories truly enhances the learning experience. I could spend hours in the book store browsing through the books to find ones that I want to add to my class library. The ones on this wish list just happen to be some of my favorite.

Story time, for me, is immersive and interactive.

As I read to the kids I try and make it as exciting as possible. The books on this list are some of the best to do that with. Some of the books teach lessons, some have beautifully drawn images, some are silly, some are thoughtful. All are stories worth being told!

Please help build and fill my classroom library; myself and the students would appreciate it so much!
