My Project

My students are four and five years olds. They love books! Through this project, I am looking to add books to the library that push students to think and talk about the stories they hear. In addition, these stories are short and through repeated readings, my students will further develop their ability to be a storyteller.

I am eager to add more books to the classroom library with diverse characters just like the students I teach.

In addition, I am excited to fill the wordless picture book bin with more books for children to browse. They love looking at the detailed pictures and retelling the story across the pages. This project will put more books in my classroom library for students to enjoy for many years.
