Help me give my students a diverse set of books that will bring excitement to our classroom.

My Project

My students love story time. It is when they sit criss cross applesauce on the rug, with their hands in their laps, eyes wide open, and ears ready to hear tales of excitement, sadness, bewilderment, love, compassion, and history.

These new books will add a splash of zazz to our book collection at school.

They will help to make and keep story time a time of amazement.

My students will leave the classroom asking more questions, having more vocabulary words to speak, and looking for more books to be read.

Ms. Brown Hope Academy Grades PreK-2
