My Project

My students love to be read to. After they mimic the reading . This encourages them to use the skills taught to help them read similar books they would like to read.

My library consists of a small collection of books I buy.

I need to expand my library to get a variety of books to reach all my students interest. They love books about science and animals. I teach a class of children with emotional needs. I picked humorous ones that they can relate to.I want to motivate all 6 of my kids to want to be readers . The best way to do this is to peek their interest.

Please, help me help them by contributing to my class library.
