My Project

The items requested will be highly essential at our school. In our program we do not have many books as we do not have a library. We have been utilizing one bookshelf of books for a few years now. My students weren't always fans of reading but have recently entered their era of understanding the power of reading! They are currently working on writing their own book as a class. I am so proud of their growth as learners. They've gone from hating reading or anything to do with work in general, to understanding the power or reading, learning, and growing as students.
