My Project

In my classroom, it is my goal to impart the love of books and reading to my students, and the best way to do this is by bringing fun, new, and relevant titles to our shelves! Our class library is one of our favorite spots in the classroom, and my students are always searching for the next exciting book to read.

With new additions to a series, new releases from favorite authors, and recommendations from peers, there is no shortage of books we are eager to read and get to share as a class.

These books will help us to practice so many important reading skills we practice in class, and will help to create excitement around reading!
