My Project

Our school has a reading initiative going to promote reading of any form outside of the classroom with our students. It is really encouraging to find that many do enjoy reading, but want to read high interest YA novels that are not typically taught in classes.

By supporting my students, you will be providing them with the tools they need to listen to audiobooks and read as many free books as they can get a hold of on the kindle.

I tell my kids that reading is more than just opening a book. I want them to feel comfortable in knowing that any means of reading, whether it is a book, an audiobook or a digital book is acceptable. All forms allow students to really open their imaginations.
