My Students

My students are a mixture of all great things. They all come into my classroom with a positive smiling face which in return makes our class shine bright to all. They never give up no matter how hard learning in class may get.

My Project

Having a diverse collection of literacy in our classroom library will open students mind up of meeting others. This collection will affect them positively from kindergarten all the way into their adulthood.

Having these diverse books in our classroom library will give students a chance to see themselves in books as well as other cultures outside of them, and it will give students a better understanding of what different cultures are.

Having these diverse books in our classroom library leaves a significant experience and impact on scholars learning and experiencing cultures from the given culture.
