My Project

Having current and up-to-date books is a vital part of a class library. With these selections, my students can access great, current literature.

It always puts a smile on their faces when they see the newest released book in our library that they can read.

Most of my students come from homes that aren't able to use their finances to purchase new books often. Providing that opportunity at school makes it all worth it when they develop a love for reading. I love giving that feeling to my students each year.
