My Project

My school has adopted a new reading program for next year that has a ton of in-depth topics. I would love to add to our classroom library and expand my students' thinking and interest on these topics.

I am so excited to add to my students' wealth of knowledge and expand on topics discussed in our program!

I love to foster a love of reading with my students. Incorporating these trade books into our classroom will help me engage and promote a love of literacy. They will also allow me to expand on what is being taught in our curriculum.
