My Project

Watching my students engage in story time brings a smile to my face. They love listening to and discussing about what I read to them. We have a very small classroom library. It would truly be wonderful to add all these wonderful books to our classroom. My little learners will increase their knowledge and love of reading with each and every story. Giving them the opportunity to hear a variety of stories will allow them to progress academically. Their imaginations allow them to make the stories come alive. These books will be treasures to our minds and hearts.
