My Project

Our kindergarteners are some of the most joyful, hardworking, and determined students you will come across. They have a true passion for reading and genuinely want to become better readers and grow their brains. My class has a particular interest in animals and learning about all the places that animals live.

I want to keep our momentum for reading going and fill our classroom with new books that inspire more reading and a desire to learn.

We are going to add a new section full of non-fiction animal books to our library as well as give us a set of books that can be read in a small group with a copy for each student.
