My Project

My current classroom library contains many books that are very outdated and the kids just aren't interested in reading them! So I need to update my library with books that they can relate to! The main books I have in this project are Percy Jackson books which focus on stories about kids with some of the same special needs as those I currently teach!

These books will help them not only learn better reading and comprehension skills but also help them see that they aren't alone in this world!

Please consider helping me provide them with these books! Thank you!
