Help me give my students a classroom library meant for our World History class. My students love to learn and are always looking to expand their knowledge when they find a topic they love!
My students are from a small, rural area in Clover, SC. I have students from all types of homes and families. I teach 6th grade Social Studies and it is my students' first year in middle school! It is also my first year teaching Social Studies. I am a former ELA teacher. I would like to help encourage them to become independent learners and have a deep love for social studies and reading. My classroom should be a safe and comfortable place for them to grow and learn. I am hoping that the projects I have created will help to make their learning environment more welcoming and comfortable with all of the basic necessities they need to succeed and have fun while doing it!
My students are fabulous and deserve only the best when it comes to their education.
My Project
These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind-I have watched them the past few weeks of school read titles just like these, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.
With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently about topics they love in history.
They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading and expand their knowledge in World History.
