My Students

My students are hard workers, especially during this pandemic. They are currently learning remotely and they are doing a great job. This grade is a very unique experience and students need the best resources to make their learning flow easier.

My Project

This project includes grade appropriate books that will allow my students to build a better reading life. In grade three, the idea of learning has slightly changed as students are "reading to learn". The chosen books range from fiction to nonfiction books which are necessary in grade three.

Allowing me to have these books will allow students to engage in character studies, learn more about character traits, and even create accountable talk discussions with our book clubs!

With the way education has shifted to a hybrid learning model, my students need continued encouragement in order to build on their reading fluency.
