My Project

I am so excited to start teaching a new elective class to our middle school students! It's called Books and Movies and it will be all about reading, my favorite pastime!

My goal is to instill a LOVE of reading in my students!

They need to know that reading can be fun! That it can be fun to learn new things and immerse yourself in a story! In order to do this, I need class sets of books for them!

My students need class sets of novels to read, learn, and grow!
