My Project

My students are a very lively group of diverse learners from various cultural backgrounds. It is essential to keep my classroom library up to date with engaging texts from a variety of genres and reading levels. Some students are interested in realistic fiction where they can see themselves in the book, while other students are looking to escape to another world with a fantasy novel. Then I have some students that may be visual learners and can easily engage in a graphic novel. All in all, my students would benefit greatly from some updated best selling, award winning novels.
