My Project

We love books! My students are so rough with books, so we always are in need of new ones!

The tactile books allow my students to touch and feel new textures.

This also teaches them new tactile things, so they're more willing to engage in new things. The flap books allows my students to work on fine motor skills by opening and closing hidden flaps. They love this.

These are new books the kids have never seen, so they will like the variety that this selection brings to our classroom library.
