My Project

At the beginning of this school year, I began to build my classroom library with books that reflected my students' identities and interests. Now, I hope to build my library with books that respond to students' interests.

All books on this list have been explicitly requested by students via student surveys and classroom conversations.

My students this year love manga, horror, and mystery! These are gaps in my classroom library that I hope to begin to fill through this order. Help me sustain my students' love for independent reading and build up their identities as lifelong readers.
