My Project

My Special Education students often struggle to find books to read that are interesting to them while also matching their reading level. So often, books that are accessible to the students are not in a subject matter that appeals to them.

Help me build my classroom library with a variety of books students in my multigrade classroom will be drawn to in order to build their love of literacy.

My students love characters in popular stories, but often those books are checked out in our school library, making it disappointing during our weekly visits.

I would like to grow my own classroom library and fill it with books my students often request so they can become more confident readers as they reach for the books they love!
