These new books will help me replace some old worn out books with new exciting titles. The new titles will help to instill a since of community among my students and make them realize that anything is possible with hard work. Instilling a love of reading is my hope and dream for my students as well as empowering them to be better human beings in the world. Growth mindset lets them know that not everyone does things well the first time and sometimes mistakes lead to important findings. Also making sure my students understand we are all different and should be treated kindly helps to make our school and community a better place.
