My Students

Do you remember getting hooked on a series of books as a child? Waiting for the newest book to be released in a series and digging right into it? My students share that excitement and joy of waiting for and then finally devouring the newest books in their favorite series. My students are inquisitive and enthusiastic learners.

My goal is to provide them with a classroom library that represents diversity, multiple genres, and some of the newest titles.

I am working to co-create a classroom library with my children so they can take ownership and pride in their library and in their reading!

My Project

My students are avid readers. They are excited to grow their reading stamina and need a diverse and engaging classroom library. I am asking for help to make my classroom library engaging to all levels of readers.

My goal is to get ALL students, no matter what their reading level may be, to love ready and our library!

With your help, I am hoping to co-create a classroom library so that they can feel proud and accomplished! Students will have a chance to read many books both at school and at home with their families. The more books we have, the more chances students will have to be immersed in reading.
