My Project

In my classroom, I have students that enjoy reading informational books about animals. They spend time independently reading everyday. I have purchased a few animal books to add to my library and I saw how much they enjoyed reading them. We are currently working on our informational writing piece about an animal and I noticed that I need to add more choices to my library collection. I also need different type of reading levels to meet my students learning needs. I also added staplers to this project because my two staplers stopped working because the kids in the after school program didn’t use them properly. Thank you in advanced for supporting my classroom.
