My Project

I have a wide range of readers in my classroom and I want to revamp my classroom library. All of my students love to read and I want to encourage that passion. I love seeing them enjoy what they are reading and love for them to come to tell me about what is going on in their books.

I have observed books that they are interested in and would like to put those books in our classroom library.

My students tend to read more when there is more than one book in that series so this is why I have chosen a variety of book sets.

My goal for this project is to bring books into my classroom that are on each of my students' levels.
