My Project
My students are passionate readers and learners who are always eager to explore new books. They come from diverse backgrounds, and reading is a key part of how we build language skills, comprehension, and a love for learning. Despite their enthusiasm, we currently lack a proper space to organize and showcase our classroom books, which makes it harder for them to access the resources they need.
Our classroom has a growing collection of books, but we don’t have a designated place to store them.
Right now, books are scattered across different spaces, making it difficult for students to easily find the books they need. Having bookshelves would allow us to create an organized, welcoming space where students can browse and choose books independently.
With two new bookshelves, my students will:
Access Books Easily: A dedicated space for books will make it much easier for students to find what they’re looking for and encourage more independent reading.
Develop Organization Skills: Keeping our books organized and visible will help students take ownership of their reading habits and classroom environment.
Promote a Love for Reading: A well-organized and inviting reading area will make books more accessible and encourage students to read more often, improving literacy skills and fostering a love for learning.
A designated space for our books will help make reading a bigger part of our daily routine and give students more opportunities to explore the world through books.
We are requesting two sturdy bookshelves to organize and display our classroom library. These shelves will create a designated space for our books, helping students access the materials they need to grow academically and foster a love for reading.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
