My Project

I am requesting some books for my class. These books will be used for independent reading, as well as for class read alouds. It is very important that each child receive a book so they can follow along, learn more closely about the characters, and answer questions as we read.

My students absolutely love to read!

They have asked for certain series and I would be happy to supply it for them!

The dry erase boards will help make learning more interactive in my classroom and the book bins will help keep everything organized.
