My Project

Books are not always meant to be lock within the classroom library. Within our prek classroom books are throughout the whole room. Books may vary from reading books to writing and drawing books. Our classroom learners have daily opportunities to move throughout the room to different learning centers. Within these centers I hope to incorporate many different variousions of books.

Books beyond the library include book promoting writing, math, language learning, and even drawing our their creativity.

The use of these books within our classroom will benefit student many years to come. It is important to see books as an important source for information.
