My Project

As a new teacher to fourth grade I am in need of more and new books in my classroom. I asked my students what books they are interested in and the books I have requested are ones they mentioned. Many students said they enjoy graphic novels. I am hoping to bring the books they requested into the classroom for their enjoyment! My students would be thrilled to receive these books in their classroom library. I am hoping this update to my classroom library will help to further engage my students in the joy of reading.
