My Project

I am so fortunate to teach a group of diverse readers, writers, and learners! We have over forty languages spoken throughout our high school, and students are able to benefit so much from their cultural diversity.

These fiction and nonfiction books will help encourage students in their independent reading, as well as add more representation into our growing classroom library.

Our readers will be motivated to create projects and presentations based off of their independent reading, which will foster skills such as listening and speaking. My students will be so grateful for these classroom assets!
