My Project

My goal every year is for ALL my kiddos to become life long readers. Often times I find that boys tend to lack the drive and or motivation to read. Well help me spark their interest in reading! Sports, adventure, graphic novels and pokemon are books that create and spark high interest! I always try to have a diverse collection of all genres but fall short of books geared for the boys! These books would be a perfect edition to add to our classroom genre filled library especially for our boy readers!
