My Project
Reading is truly one of my favorite things to do! Inspiring my students to read and giving them endless books to choose from and share with each other is a major goal of mine. Adding highly rated thrillers to our shelves is the next step to hook them into reading and getting them talking about books in their exchanges!
By introducing exciting genres to my students and showing them that there is so much more than what they have confined themselves to, I hope to encourage them to love reading as much as I do and broaden their selections!
Books can take you on all of the adventures without having to move from the comfort of your seat! I look forward to watching them grow their love of reading and watching our bookshelf evolve to their needs so they can keep passing the books along!
More than half of students from low‑income households
