My students need new and engaging book series to read during Monitored Independent Reading Practice time. The objective of this project is to increase fluency and vocabulary of every student in my classroom. When books contain the same or similar words and characters students are able to focus no comprehending what they are reading, and increase their reading fluency. This means they are able to read continuously without having to stop and decode words they don't know, since the stories will have similar plots, characters, and vocabulary. When students are able to find a series of books that they love they want to read and discuss it with their peers. It's contagious. The OK state testing program still has high expectations for all students. COVID has cost us class time. Purchasing this series would help us make up lost time. The targeted population of my project is my 3rd grade students but also the students they chose to discuss their books. The expected outcome of this project is for my students fluency scores to improve but also for them to find a series of books that they love.
