Book in a Bag is a way to help students improve fluency and comprehension. Each student will receive a book in a bag every week. Each bag will contain a book along with activities for vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. Students will read the book with an adult and independently then complete the included activities for their books. This project will allow me to meet students needs on their level because the books will be assigned based on each student's individual reading level. The aim is to bring up student profiency in reading.
