I am asking for your help to help me bring new captivating books into our classroom. I love reading to my students and I read to them every day. It is easily one of my favorite times of our school day. I love sharing a book that brings us all together, gets us thinking, and even teaches us lessons about life. The books that I have requested will have a multi-use in our classroom as I will read them to the students and they will also have many opportunities to read them during their own silent reading time. An intentional selection of books is essential to inspire their love of reading and experiencing the magic of a story.
