My Project

I have had the pleasure of working in my school for 23 years. I love teaching science concepts to my students and I also love the fact that they are good readers. They love to have good novels to engage them when it is time for independent reading. My scientist love to read and this helps them to learn about the real world and it helps them to prepare for reading exams. My students love to broaden their horizons by reading and I want to give them access to novels that we do not have in our school.
