I am a middle school ELA teacher starting my second year of teaching. I love seeing middle schoolers from different paths and backgrounds all finding books that they LOVE and that make them excited about reading. I am currently working to build and expand my classroom library to find more books with diverse characters and authors as well as more books across multiple genres so that ALL of my students can find something they love. I will use all of the funds I raise to purchase books my students have asked for or expressed interest in reading. Thank you for supporting my effort to inspire love and joy for reading in my young adolescent students so that they can blossom into lifelong learners, readers, and thinkers!
