My Project

My Kindergarten students love animals! My goal is to cultivate a literacy rich environment, and these books are essential additions to my classroom library. This space is a hub for literacy, where students actively engage with texts through read-alouds, assignments, independent reading, and activities I select from TPT. By offering books tailored to their grade level and interests, I'm directly addressing the key to reading improvement: increased reading volume.

These carefully chosen books, based on student interest, will empower them to select engaging texts and further develop their reading proficiency.

My students have already demonstrated a remarkable passion for reading, and this project will further enhance their literacy journey.
