My Project

I am so excited for this project to give my students access to Times for kids magazine, a reader full of current events. Our school has limited access to social studies curriculum and this will fill a huge gap in their learning.

National Geographic books are interesting and full of wonderful knowledge that extends my teaching.

I can’t teach them every fact about animals, creatures and historical people but they can read it in our classroom library.

My students are in the beginning stages of reading and having access to good quality reading materials will enhance their love for reading. Thank you for helping me update my classroom library!
