My Project

I recently have been doing read clouds to my students. They have really loved "Pete The Cat", Dr. Seuss and the Pigeon books. I am looking to add more of these books into the classroom library so the class can enjoy them during their free reading time. Along with these sets, students that have been struggling with reading and writing will be able to use the books that specifically go over short vowel sounds, digraphs and so on. This set is essential in helping my English Language Learners and will make them more confident in reading.
