My Project

Our students are incredibly creative, compassionate and enthusiastic. They love to read so we want to help encourage and support this habit. We're going to plaster the library with colorful book reviews and pictures of students reading their favorite texts with some old school technology - a polaroid camera!

We will take and post photos of students reading their favorite books and post them around the library for other students to see.

The actual snapshots will also have reviews of books so students can make good choices for books that will suit their interests.

With colorful and vibrant visuals to surround them, students will be able to walk out of our amazing library with great books choices to enjoy. The color printer/copier will be a great way to create bigger visuals of folks in our community reading and promoting literacy.
