  • Hurray for Books and Book Buddies!

    Funded Sep 26, 2023

    Thank you so much for your donations! Student were amazed when they saw their new books and book buddies. The characters (book buddies) have really allowed the students to connect to the character ideas/traits while I read during our read aloud time. Student also enjoy going to our library/reading area to read books and will now have the option to read there with their book buddies. The new books and book buddies are also displayed throughout the classroom for the book of the week and are ready for the students who finish their work early to practice their reading.

    The new book choices and their book buddies have helped not only my diverse students in not only practicing their reading skills but as a sensory modification as well. Students have been able to find comfort in their book buddies as they are holding them and reading to them or their classmates. Even my students from extended day (3rd, 4th and 5th grade) have enjoyed the new book and book buddies addition. Thank you again for making this possible for my students.”
