My Project

If my project is fully funded, I will be able to implement guided reading groups with these books, within every daily lesson. My students will also have a book baggie in school, and they can also take the baggie home to read daily. The more that my students read, their overall English Language Arts skills will improve. They will ultimately become better readers and writers! We are also planning to write stories! My students would also like to create books! They will be the authors and illustrators! They will experience academic excellence! This project will be supporting economically disadvantaged students, who have awesome dreams of becoming successful in the future.
