Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 19

Students had access to books all year long right inside their classroom. With options to choose from, students were able to find some of the books of their favorite series to enhance their reading skills daily.

Original Grant Overview

Goal

As a first-year teacher, I would like to create a literacy rich environment by building a classroom library that consists of books with varying genres and reading levels.

What will be done with my students

Students will be provided ample time throughout the week to choose books from our classroom library and practice their reading skills. Students will also have the opportunity to take books home to read at night.

Benefits to my students

It is important for students to have access to book every day that enhance and reinforce learning that takes place during daily instruction. By offering books with a wide range of genres, students are more likely to find reading material they are interested in reading. Reading for enjoyment helps students have fun but also practice daily skills and increase literacy levels.

Budget Narrative

Variety of books for the classroom library to meet the needs and interests of all students.
