My Project

These books will help to create an even more print-rich environment that we strive to create. Young children love seeing books with colorful covers and pictures as it helps to draw them in.

We read books every day in our classroom when we have our morning meetings and the students love it!

They enjoy choosing their own books to read and share with their friends. Pete the Cat books are sure to get their attention and are always crowd pleasers.

Early literacy sets students up for success and helps prepare them to be life long learners!
