My Project

These books will significantly benefit our classroom by fostering academic growth, cognitive development, and social-emotional learning, ultimately creating a more engaging and enriching learning environment.

My goals for this project is to foster a love of reading and promote literacy, my classroom library goals should focus on providing access to diverse and engaging materials, encouraging independent reading, and supporting students' literacy development.

My second-grade students are special because they're at a developmental stage where they're eager to learn, curious about the world, and developing their unique personalities and skills. They are also developing their social-emotional skills, learning to think independently, and building a foundation for future academic success.
