My Project

I’m requesting books to help my students expand their vocabulary, improve their cognitive development and help build background knowledge, which makes it easier to learn new information. I plan to use these books to guide them through complex plots and understanding character motivation. This will help to foster problem-solving skills, encouraging my students to make connections and draw conclusions.

Reading books is also a way to relax and reduce stress.

It is important to read a good book at least for a few minutes each day to stretch the brain muscles for healthy functioning.

By active reading, my students will be able to explore several aspects of life. It involves questioning what they’ve read. It will help them develop their thoughts and express their opinions. New ideas and thoughts pop up in your mind by active reading. It stimulates and develops your brain and gives you a new perspective. So I would love to have the appropriate resources to help them.
