My Students

My wonderful 4th-grade students come from very diverse backgrounds. The one thing they have in common is their joy for reading. They are eager to learn and look for ways to do more. My students are curious about the world and want to learn more.

My students face many social and emotional issues in today’s world.

They need to be given strategies for handling these issues. There are so many negative influences that impact children’s lives. I want to give them as many positive experiences through the world of reading. They need books to read that share a message of kindness and acceptance.

My Project

These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. I read on the carpet to them, they complete work there, and they read independently! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. These books have been chosen with my students in mind. I have watched them the past few weeks of school read titles just like these, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.

Fish in a Tree will enrich the lives of my students by teaching kindness to everyone.

This is a powerful story of a student who lives with a learning disability. It helps you understand through the eyes of this child what it is like to struggle in the academic setting.
