My Project

My students are smart and filled with questions of the world. Exploring books helps them do just that. They are inquisitive and try their hardest to learn as much as they can.

These novels are the passages to our learning.

Using these books we will be able to complete a class novel study. Students will also have access to the books on this years Battle of the Books challenge. The students are excited to be able to participate in this challenge but need more access to the books.

Thank you for helping to support my students learning and helping them find a passion for books.
