As the year comes to a close, progress reports are reviewed, and I reflect on how we could end this year with a bang AND start next year with 1,000% success, I realize that my kids need a new library in our classroom.
Books need to be spotlighted and celebrated.
Books need to be the core focus of our classroom. I can’t do this without shelves to create a space in the classroom for a library. With a classroom library, my kids can have access to hundreds of books on a day to day basis whether it’s reading after classwork is done or just book shopping for a book to take home and read. In either case, I need a space and place where kids can see, feel, and touch the books in our room. Please help me create the library of their dreams!!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
