My Project

I have been blessed with an amazing classroom library through the help of DonorsChoose. I try to find high-interest, diverse books to supplement the classics we read in our English class. On a weekly basis, students take a book to read on their own. Sometimes they even return them!

It's time to add a few more titles to my classroom library.

Some books are borrowed and never returned, and I'd like to restock them. Other times, I want to add books I think my students will enjoy. Thank you for helping me keep my students engaged and reading!
