Funded Jul 28, 2024Thank you so much for your generous donation that helped create a wonderful classroom library for my second graders. Not only am I focused on teaching my students how to read, but also the joy of reading! Our classroom library is stocked with books for all of my readers- those still learning reading skills, those reading at grade level, and those who are ready for more challenging books. Our classroom is very diverse and it is important for me to have books that reflect that. Our library features books that reflect our Black, Latino, and Arabic students.
During centers, when I am working with a small group of students, students are invited to choose a book from the library, a reading buddy, and a cozy spot to settle in with a book. My students love that they get to choose what they get to read and that they can be cozy and comfortable.
This project will continue to serve students at our school for years to come. I am excited to continue helping educate the next generation of readers.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Farzad
