My Project

My students are very outgoing and driven young scholars. They are lovers of books and knowledge. With knowing this information, I started a library in my room that gives my scholars reading material that is important to them and different concepts in Science. The library has taken a life of its own. Students pour their old books into the library for future students to use. The only thing we have found lacking is that scholars do not have content knowledge book. These books will serve to help scholars learn more about the concepts in the classroom. The books will also serve as a teaching tool to help scholars explore relevant concepts. It has been proven literacy in Science can help to increase reading scores and Science scores. Please help me get my scholars some books that is relevant to their grade level and content knowledge.
