My Project

At our middle school, reading is a prioritized life skill, one that should be utilized for education and enjoyment. Students engage in 40 minutes of silent sustained reading, called rover, every single day.

My classroom library is utilized by all the students in the school, primarily during this Rover period.

I have asked students to compile a list of books that they want to read during silent sustained reading, and this is what they've come up with!

Help us get the books that kids truly want to read.
