My Project

My students have developed a true love for reading this year. Our class library is one of our favorite places in our classroom. These books and book bins will help to add some new genres and book titles to our ever-growing shelves.

With these new books, my students will continue to grow and develop as readers of different topics and genres.

These books offer themes and subject matters that vary which will engage different student interests within my classroom. I encourage my students to explore new authors and book series so they can expand their reading libraries and their wealth of knowledge.

Books take us on new journeys and discoveries with every turn of the page. Thank you for helping to bring these new and exciting experiences to my third graders.
