My Project

Reading is such an essential part of life. My school has recently implemented the AR Reading program, and my junior high students enjoy and relish their time reading in class and earning points and prizes.

However, my classroom library needs a boost!

I have learned the reading interests and levels of my 6th, 7th, and 8th grade classes, and the novels and book series I have chosen will meet their needs.

My students will be excited to see adventure, mystery, dystopian, historical fiction, and graphic novels on the shelves in my classroom.
