My Project

My students love visiting the library and discovering new subjects and places and events! Non-fiction books are especially popular, but they can become outdated pretty quickly. Popular books on topics such as dinosaurs and space can become worn from so much reading. This necessitates the need for our non-fiction book collection to continue growing. The DK encyclopedia and anthologies will allow the students to learn about new topics that they have yet to discover and will provide good resources to use for book reports. My students love the fun format of the DK books, they make reading engaging and easy to digest!
