My Project

My 4th graders are a creative and curious group with a wide range of interests. They love to read, independently and together, and discuss what they are reading. I want to always be nurturing their love of books.

It is so important that students have the time and space to read things they truly enjoy.

Students deserve access to many different kinds of books, especially at this critical stage in their literacy.

My students have expressed interest in reading more graphic novels. These high-interest graphics will allow them to do that.
