My 7th through 12th grade students are each unique in their interests, needs, and personalities. My goal is to find books that can ignite a love of literature in each of my students. This goal leads me on a mission to find high-interest books that I can include in our classroom to not only meet state standards, but help build a love of reading that will last my students a lifetime.
With each new page they turn, there is potential for igniting a love of lit.
is growing. Each new novel increases the chances of building lifelong readers, giving them the skills they need to read both for information and pleasure.
Your donation directly impacts each of the students in my classroom, allowing for more high-interest choices to read as a class and independently. These novels will allow us to learn necessary standards, have in-depth discussions, and begin to develop or continue to foster a love of reading.
