My Project

My students are growing readers who deserve access to quality reading materials. They love engaging in reading series. This project will help replace old books with new ones that better fit their interests and reading levels.

This project will help me update my library to ensure that it reflects who my students are and what they need.

I have included a diverse set of books to refresh my class library and engage my readers in a meaningful way. I have included books for many different levels of readers to better fit the needs of my students. The lamps will help create a cozy, warm environment.
