Funded May 15, 2017There are several skills introduced to our students through text. This week we are working on story elements. We took a walk through our newly donated books to focus on theme, setting, and characters. It makes it a lot more interesting when we have a variety of text. There are several books which have great themes that help me to make real life connections.
In my classroom reading looks normal, and students are engaged. I try to encourage students to read for enjoyment to develop a passion for text. Reading is the way we often start our day, a task after completing an assignment timely, and brings our day to a close.
All of my students are eager to get an opportunity to read the "new books!" I have a waiting list of anxious readers waiting to be transformed by the text they choose. They love a new adventure and I am happy to be able to provide them the experience.”
With gratitude,
