My Project

Throughout the week students have opportunities to book shop in our classroom library. They have their own book baggies and can fill it with books that they want to read that week. My students love going book shopping but the text selection is limited, dated, and falling apart. My goal is to build a classroom library where students can find books that interest them and keep them wanting to return to our library daily. We need your help bringing our classroom library back to life! Let’s get more books into the hands of these amazing first graders!
