My project is all about making reading more engaging and accessible for students and young kids in my community. I’ll be helping with Read Across America at a high school in the Bay Area or local elementary schools in early March, and I’ll also lead storytime sessions at local libraries from mid-February to April. The goal is to create fun, interactive reading experiences that help kids connect with books in a meaningful way. Whether it’s through read-alouds, discussions, or activities, I want to make reading something they look forward to. I’ll gather feedback from students, teachers, and librarians, as well as take notes on engagement and participation, to see what’s working and what could be improved. In the end, this project is about more than just reading—it’s about building confidence, sparking curiosity, and strengthening the community’s connection to books and literacy.
