Great Books for Growing Readers!

Help me give my students quality literature to enjoy in class and grow as readers!

My Project

Reading starts with a good book! My students love to read and are in need of high-quality, multi-leveled books. Like many classrooms, my students have varying interests. The goal is for all students to read on grade level by the end of 2nd grade. Students continue to make progress and a new classroom library would help to move students forward.

I've selected 3 levels of classroom libraries to meet the needs of all readers.

Some students enjoy funny picture books, others enjoy informational texts. These books provide great reading for all interests.

Students are excited to continue their reading journey! Thank you!
