My Project

My students are wonderful and a joy to be around. They are eager to participate in our daily learning adventures together. We have been working hard on our reading skills during the school year and are in need of more books we can read independently. When students read on their own regularly, they build the ability to focus for longer periods, read more smoothly, and understand text better.

Independent reading gives students the power to choose what they read.

That choice makes reading feel less like a task and more like an adventure. When kids love to read, they keep doing it—and learning grows naturally from there.
