My Students

Our 5th-grade students are in a Title I school In Queens, which is in need of a leveled classroom library. Many of our current books are old and worn, many of them are old titles that lack the luster on attracting our students’ interests.

My Project

This library of books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that we strive to create. My classroom library is a place that our students really enjoy! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind - we have watched them the past few weeks of school read titles just like these, and we have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.
