My Students

My 7th grade students are bright, energetic, and ready to learn. We are excited to be using or new Language Arts curriculum this year and hope that it includes some new, interesting novels.

The majority of students at my school come from low income families but have hope for a bright and successful future.

My 7th grade students are kind and helpful. They work hard in the classroom and show hard, diligent work ethic as they do their best to get their assignments in on time.

My Project

These books will allow my students to read more novels in a year and keep the books in our room or take them home to read without getting a library fine they cannot pay.

My students are hungry to read this year and I want to give them the opportunity.

They need an opportunity to forget what goes on at home and allow their imaginations to sore with endless possibilities.

The best part is, if my student falls in love with the book, this makes it affordable for me to give them the book. For most of my students it will be the only book they ever own.
