My Project

Did you know studies have shown a good school library program is linked to higher student achievement? Therefore, instilling a love of reading in every student is my main goal and it starts with helping kids identify and find books that appeal to them! A third of our students are from economically challenged homes and our school library is often the only library experience they receive.

By using these fun and engaging lessons, kids will get excited about books!

These TpT innovative resources are interactive and are great for everything from organization to signage. Help me transform my student's elementary library experience into a lifelong love of reading!
