My Project

The students at Lely Elementary School are big-time readers. When they come to the media center, they go right to their favorite book series bins. They voraciously read through the entire series before beginning a new one.

When we get new books in the media center, the kids get incredibly excited.

They want to be the first to read a new book and share it with their friends. This is the beauty of having great reading material for the kids - they get excited about reading and want to share that excitement with their friends.
