Students were so impressed with the quality of the books that were delivered. It was like bringing them to Barnes and Noble for a field trip! That same excitement was delivered to my classroom. Students were given time to explore all of the titles and spend time discussing their thoughts and curiosities. Students love the visual encyclopedias by Theodore Gray, including \"Molecules,\" \"Reactions,\" and \"Engines.\" These books are stunning pictorial explanations of complex science and engineering topics. \r\n\r\nI truly believe that literacy is the most important skill that students can learn in school.
