It was such a heartwarming experience to see our eager 4th graders carefully select a book from our growing classroom library and share the joy of reading with my enthusiastic first graders. Watching the older students read aloud and engage with their younger peers was truly special, fostering both literacy skills and meaningful connections.\r\n\r\nEvery day before dismissal, I make it a priority to read a book to my students, creating a moment of calm and shared excitement for stories. Without a doubt, their absolute favorite book so far has been Ants In My Pants! They giggle, react, and hang onto every word, making it such a joy to read. Moments like these remind me how important access to books and a love for reading can be in shaping young minds.
