I am creating this page to help my students have materials that they cannot afford themselves. Allowing students to have a more organized library is essential in getting them to choose books that are just right for them. It encourages reading, helps our library stay in great shape, and makes the room easier to keep clean. As of now, we are very limited on notebooks and folders, which makes for poor organization! I could really use these in order to create more interactive journals with the students. They need to have these basic materials to help them become better writers and note takers! Finally, the Time magazines would be a wonderful resource for students to be able to expand on their reading options and stay current in Science fields! They absolutely love reading these magazines, and they allow for great conversation in the classroom!
