My Project

My students are the brightest and love reading. They love to go to the library and pick out the books they are most interested in. Having new books for especially the readers who need extra encouragement is a necessity. These books often get mixed up or misplaced and keeping them in a new baggy would help.

Having a book baggy and more books ensures they are prepared for independent reading and also have the flexibility to read anywhere in the classroom.

Clear sheet protectors keep their reading worksheets clean and ready to be used while they are independent reading. Their reading worksheets serve as tools to help them when reading gets tricky.
