My Project

We need a wide selection of books at various interest levels for the students to choose from. My students love and enjoy reading, and new books will further increase their interest and desire to read, as well as help improve their reading stamina.

My goal is to grow our classroom library!

We read daily to develop our literacy skills and engage in discussions on various topics related to what we read. We regularly discuss authors, stories, genres, and themes.

Our class is in great need of books! Reading for pleasure is a central part of our classroom culture, and it is my responsibility to provide them with books they are excited to pick up and read. They need books that are a good fit for their individual reading levels. I am eager to add more books to support students reading at different levels.

Daily reading hones essential skills such as vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension, all of which are critical to their academic growth.
