My Project

As a lifelong reader, it is always my goal to inspire reading in children. Every year we order books and the students like to keep them, so we are constantly replenishing the supply. In order to encourage independent reading, we like to make sure we have the books that spark their interest.

My goal is to keep our reading coffers full of interesting and grade appropriate books so we can keep the reading spark lit!!

We plan to use the books:

*During Independent Reading time

*For students to take home and read for their leisure

*To create book clubs
