Here's to the Next Chapter!

Help me give my students a more diverse reading selection. My students do not have their own school library so we create small classroom libraries for them to enjoy. Help me give them books they may relate to

My Project

My school does not have its own library so many teachers have taken to creating small libraries within their classroom to get more students reading.

My overall goal for this project is to give my students a wide and diverse selection of reading materials to choose from.

I have many students check out books from me and I wanted to give them more culturally diverse options that they may be able to relate better to. By giving them the opportunity to seek out reading, I hope to grow their passion for it.

Ms. Whitehouse Geo International High School Grades 9-12
