Young Minds Love to Explore

Help me give my students a classroom library filled with diverse, loving books that they can read, connect with, learn from, and most importantly enjoy.

My Project

This project includes 20 different books that are crucial to the exploration of young minds. These books teach students about the subject they are learning as well as diversity all in one! I have included books that are diverse in culture, religion, communities, families, and backgrounds.

This project highlights the importance of not only having knowledgeable books in your classroom library, but books that represent all your students, and provide connections for them.

These books would be a well rounded start to my own classroom library. They would be read during the subject time, and then displayed in the classroom library highlighting the learning being done for the week. These books would be available for my students at all times for them to enjoy.
