My Project

Adding a variety of non-fiction books to our class library is just what my students need! During independent reading time, students get to pick books within their reading level and interest to read at school and at home. I hope to reach more student interest in non-fiction books with these books!

Having a variety of nonfiction books to choose from is vital to student interest and success!

We have so many different levels of readers in our classroom who are interested in different topics. I hope these books will help them become more excited about reading at school and at home!
