My Project

Our students come to school to learn, build connections, and be happy. They are kind, safe, productive, and focused on their future.

A diverse classroom library will support my 5th grade students in offering books at their individual reading levels and of their unique interests.

This set of books will serve my students, the majority being below grade level in reading. The set includes a variety of genres to reach the diverse interests and needs of my students. The beautiful new books in the hands of every student will be used everyday whether for reading pleasure, for their weekly reading log as homework, for classwork and for projects. The benefits of having a wide selection of books at their fingertips are endless.
