My Project

March Madness will be here before we know it, and with that, comes our Battles of Books! Each day of our March Madness, we will be reading a different picture book by a diverse set of authors. Representation is important, and making sure that our kiddos are reading a diverse set of books by a wide variety of authors is a priority.

We are requesting a beautiful set of diverse picture books to represent all of the students we teach.

These books will be read by the entire fourth grade, and displayed for the whole school. We want to make sure that every kiddo feels represented in the stories we read!
