My Project

Third grade is in full swing and because our classroom is well loved and has become their home, we are in need of a few things to keep that home-like feel in our classroom along with new books!

My students love reading in our classroom and being able to add to our library is important to me!

Since our classroom is rich in student readers their thirst for new books continues to grow as they become more independent readers. With these books being added our library it will help my students grow their reading fluency, build their confidence in reading while learning about making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, and become better readers while learning life lessons through the colorful pages of books!
