My Project

My classroom library is a place that my students (and I) really enjoy! Every book in my library has been chosen with care, and students have access to a wide variety of engaging books. However, we are in dire need of bookshelves to house our literary treasures. As an RSP teacher, I serve students in TK through grade 5. While I have selected books that are grade/reading level-appropriate for all of the grade levels that I see, the books are currently in stacks as we only have two bookshelves.

With your generous donation, students will be able to easily select books, that have been organized and shelved by reading level, so they can enjoy independent reading time.

With these new bookshelves, my students will be able to choose from a variety of engaging books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and having a better organization system for our class library will help my students have easier access to books of interest at students' reading level.
