My Project

My students come from many different backgrounds and interests. Having a leveled library filled with high interest books will help my students build reading stamina as well as develop a love for reading. Scholastic Action magazines have multi-genre fiction and non fiction stories that will reach every learner with differentiate stories, activities, videos, and audio.

A leveled library stocked with engaging books empowers students to explore enjoyable, accessible texts, nurturing their reading abilities, and fostering a sense of confidence, motivating them to embrace literacy.

These amazing new books will make an impact on my students!
