My Project

I am requesting new read-aloud to read to and with my students throughout the year. These read-alouds will expose students to rich vocabulary as we engage with the material.

These books will engage, encourage, and push students to look for necessary reading skills through our read-aloud time.

The variety of books here will have students practicing theme, inferring, sequencing, comparing and contrasting, and visualizing.

There are books for other subjects as well. Non-fiction texts to engage students in historical figures. Math books to help with persevering through problem-solving.
