My Project
I am a newer teacher to this district. I teach first grade and would love to expand my classroom book sets to encourage and focus on reading. Giving these books to the students would open up a new world of learning and growing. I chose sets with many SEL books because in our classroom is learning how to deal with our emotions which can hinder our learning. We need to learn how to make choices and handle our big feelings to learn in our environment. I also chose science book sets to encourage many non fiction readers to explore and read.
