As a 4th year educator that has switched grades, I have spent a lot of time and money getting my classroom ready for different styles and levels of learning. These materials will come in handy since some students need a little extra motivation to enjoy reading independently. Our class has 21 kids with a range of books they enjoy. The materials chosen will help give them fun options to use during reading times. By donating to our project, you will help my students enjoy their books in any form. People of all ages need a healthy break from work throughout the day and what better way than getting lost in a good book. Giving my students fun, active, engaging reading materials is essential to their daily learning.
