My students have grown so much this year.
The student's ability to grow their learning and stretch their thinking inspires me. I want to push them even further and provide them with a classroom that focuses on their growth and strengths. With the ability to change from a traditional leveled library, I think my kids can push themselves even further and completely change their identities as readers. "Good readers" are not high readers; they are people who love to read and can think deeply about their reading.
Each student has already grown their identity and perspectives this year; I look to push them even further
