My Students
How do you turn 6th graders who are reluctant readers into enthusiastic readers? You provide them with high-interest, engaging books! Students at our school come from a culturally diverse city. A majority of my students are ESL or bilingual and can speak both English and Spanish fluently. They are hard workers and eager to learn. However they have little access to great books. Every time we go to the library, all the “lit” or “Gucci” books, as my students would say, have been checked out.
My Project
My dream is for students to fight over books they want to read because they can’t get enough of reading. My goal as a teacher is to make kids better readers, and I am able to do that when I can provide students with inspiring and engaging books. My classroom library is the most important part of my room. It is where students come together to read, discuss books, and develop a love of reading. Students who excel at reading become more successful in life. With these new books, my students can explore interesting titles, which will help them grow into strong readers. By contributing to my classroom library, you will put my students on the path to become LEADERS!
