My Project

Kindergarten students come to school with bright eyes and are ready to learn! Making the classroom library into a place where students love to be with engaging books will create a lifelong love of reading for our young learners.

Fiction and Non-fiction books that are engaging and informational help young students learn about the world around them.

I can see my students' eyes glow with excitement and anticipation as they find new books on the shelves!

As a new teacher, our classroom library still has more room to grow with more amazing books that our students can dive into. A love for reading lives on through our adult ages and our students deserve a chance to spark that interest!
