My Project

Our literacy program centers around students reading self-selected books at their just-right reading level. The books on this list will help to keep our classroom library filled with new books in diverse genres. My goal for this project is to help even reluctant readers to find a book that engages them and encourages them to continue building their vocabulary and comprehension in reading. Our students have shown amazing growth over the last 5 years and this new reading material will help our school sustain that growth over the next 5 years!
