My Project

How do you reach kids that are reluctant to read or just struggle to pick up a good book? The simple answer to that is to meet your students' needs as a reader. I have a great idea of the types of books my students love because I have gotten to know them personally throughout the school year!

Help me give my students physical books to read for enjoyment that meets their needs as a reader.

Students will be able to pick the best book that fits their needs and simply read it in the classroom. The students will have the choice to read a book in the morning , afternoon. during independent time, and whenever there is down time. I simply want my students to see the joy in reading that I saw when I was a child.
