Instilling the love of reading at a young age is essential. At the first grade level, there are many barriers that can hinder students and their excitement toward literacy. Access to books and storage can be a few of those barriers. Through this project, I would love to bring a great organization system to store our library books to help make our library an inviting space where students can easily find books that spark their love of reading. When students are able to find those just right books, magic happens and students reading abilities just soar! Together we can help build an organized library center!
