My Project

Education is changing daily and my students are changing, too. Our library does not offer class sets of many books and my students have shown an interest in novel studies. I would like to be able to have the novels in my classroom to be able to meet my students' interests. Many of my students come into my room with very little interest in reading and I hope to expand their love for reading while they are in my classroom. Helping students see that reading can be fun and entertaining is the best way to create better readers.
