My Project

My incoming class of third and fourth graders love a silly book. They are excited to begin reading chapter books and graphic novels and really enjoy reading books that are funny and make them laugh! These books will be enjoyed daily during our silent reading time.

This collection of high interest, silly books will keep my students laughing and reading!

Books in a series will also build my students confidence as they recognize familiar characters and words. These books will also build reading stamina as my students begin reading longer books.
