My Project

I've selected some books that I think my library students will enjoy. I think that books that I've chosen will help the students at my school develop a deeper love of reading.

I love to share books with my students!

Throughout the reading of the book, the most amazing discussion occur. It seems that if I share a book with 5 classes, all the students notice different things! The books that I have selected are recommended by Maria Walther in "Shake Up Shared Reading" and she has never let my students down with her recommendations.

Please, generous strangers, help fund this project.
