My students largely come from depressed economic circumstances, but they are as gifted, talented, kind, inventive, poetic, and brilliant as children from easier financial circumstances.
My students need access to a wide body of high-quality literature in the form of a classroom library.
Please help my students read stories written by authors they identify with. Help my students access literature which addresses themes familiar for them. Help them connect with reading!
Connecting with literature on a personal level enhances both comprehension and an emotional connection to reading itself. That is how a lifelong love of reading begins!
