My Students

The 5th graders at my school come from an upper middle class neighborhood whose parents value education. The students are pushed to complete a 40 book challenge in their 5th grade year at our school. For students who haven't yet found "the book" yet that ignites their passion for reading, this challenge is very difficult. I do have some avid readers in my class who helped me put this book list together of books they loved to read. I hope that having more of a selection of books in class, I will have a better chance of reaching my reluctant readers.

My Project

With this grant, I hope to use the flashlights and chairs to make a comfortable reading environment when students have time to read in class.These books will make an amazing addition to my growing classroom library.

The books where personally selected by my students as books that they would either love to read or, have already read and think that their classmates would really enjoy.

At times it can be challenging to find a great book that speaks to you and having a recommendation from a friend can really help students make the choice and dive into a good book series. My students have been challenged to read 40 books this year of 150 pages. Many of them have accepted that challenge and have made a higher goal for themselves. I plan to have a library with enough variety of books to help all of my readers reach their reading goals this year.
