My Project

As a first year fourth grade teacher, I am looking to build a classroom library filled with books students can get excited about. With interests constantly changing and evolving, I am looking for an eclectic range of books to offer students as a way to encourage and promote their autonomy.

Help me create a classroom library that ignites and fuels a passion for reading!

Helping students learn how fun reading can be leads to more avid readers who are more engaged in their learning environment. With your support, my students will have access to a wide array of reading materials for all levels that will continue fostering their interests while simultaneously introducing them to more literature they may not otherwise be exposed to.
