My Project

In the dynamic landscape of high school education, the importance of fostering a genuine love for literature cannot be overstated. I am deeply committed to creating an environment that not only educates but also inspires students to embrace the world of books. However, I face a significant challenge – the need for high engagement books that resonate with the diverse interests and backgrounds of our students.

The goal is to curate a diverse collection that spans genres and authors, creating a literary landscape that mirrors the rich tapestry of our student body.

By introducing these captivating books, we aim to spark discussions, prompt critical thinking, and most importantly, instill a genuine love for reading in each student.

Literacy is not merely the ability to read; it is the power to interpret, analyze, and connect with the world through words. The introduction of high engagement books will directly impact our students' literacy development. These narratives will serve as vehicles for exploration, encouraging students to delve into new worlds, consider diverse perspectives, and engage with ideas that extend beyond the confines of our classroom.
