My Project

I am in my 3rd year and I never want to stop developing as an educator. I want to read books that help me be a positive influence as well as grow as an ELA teacher. By helping me purchase these books, you will be investing in me as well as the education of the kids that I teach.

The books I've selected are mainly to help me be the influence I want to be, as well as help me to revamp my reading curriculum so my students become lifelong readers.
