My Project

I thought I had books in my class that meets the needs of all of my students but I was wrong.

Where are the books that kids read just for fun?

Majority of the books in my classroom relate to a standard or a social emotional lesson that I'm trying to teach. My students deserves to read books just for fun, books that they like to read. Having these books in the classroom will help satisfy my students needs of the books that they want inside of the classroom. A book just for fun to read.
