My Students

My class is a community and we are striving for excellence out of each member. The students in my classroom are hard working and are devoted to each other. They are developing skills that will not only make themselves successful, but also to help their classmates become more successful as well.

There are 30 students in my class with a wide range of learning styles and abilities.

Even though we have diversity in our class, we work well together as a team.

My Project

I am a first year teacher and my classroom library is very small. What books I do have are older and was "handed down" to me. I would love to have a variety of books for students to enjoy. This will be a good start to have sets of books that are popular with the students. The cushions are for the floor, where the students can spread out and get comfortable. The book bins are to keep the classroom library organized so that the students will be able to find the AR level they need easily. Thank you for considering supporting the readers in my class!
