The very morning the books arrived, several students gathered around the new shelves, excitedly flipping through titles and pointing out stories they couldn't wait to read. The energy in the room shifted immediately—students were eager to dive in.\r\n\r\nWithin the first week, I had multiple students ask if they could take books home because they \"didn't want to stop reading.\" One reluctant reader asked to borrow a graphic novel overnight and returned the next day proudly announcing, \"I finished it!\" Another student shared that she and her little brother read one of the new books together before bed. These small moments—students excitedly making reading part of their everyday lives—are the kinds of changes teachers dream of.\r\n\r\nYour support has made a meaningful and lasting impact on our classroom. These shelves aren't just holding books; they're supporting confidence, independence, and a growing love of reading.

Each time they would finish reading a book from the series they were thumbing through the rest of the titles to find their next read. The added bonus was the fact that students enjoyed reading while cozied up in new comfortable floor seating.\r\nGreat news is, this is just the beginning! A brand new group of 2nd grade students will soon get to experience these resources and continue to deepen their own love for reading.
