My Project

I am working to build a classroom library that will provide a wide variety of topics. Including multiple types of topics will keep more students interested in reading. I am rebuilding my library as I come back to teaching after a couple years off. This project will give me a jump start on filling my room with great book adventures.

Any reading is great reading.

I love to encourage students to read what they love and are interested in. This includes graphic novels, fiction, non fiction, and everything in between. Filling my new library from this project will help get me started on creating a dream classroom library.
