My Students

Our school is a small, rural community where students are able to get to know each other and their teachers very well. All of the children and adults in the school become a family throughout the year.

My class of third and fourth graders are an enthusiastic, driven group of children who are excited about learning.

They are engaged every day in what is being taught and get excited to share their thoughts, new learning and ideas. They deserve to have all of the supplies and experiences that they want and need to make their learning fun and interesting.

My Project

These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library needs a facelift by incorporating more high interest books and new titles. Students in third and fourth grade love to read independently. I have my students in my classroom for 2 years, so I want to be sure that they have enough choices to keep them interested as they progress through the reading levels.

All of these books will be used to enhance social-emotional learning, book discussions, and to excite curious minds for independent reading time.

They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. This project will add excitement to our classroom library!
