My Project

These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place my students enjoy. I read on the carpet to them, they complete work there, and they read independently! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for opportunities to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind. I have watched them these past few weeks of school engage in similar titles just like these, and I have also aligned some of them with our curriculum. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own pace.

They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading and understanding the concept of print. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
