My Project

We are starting a new school year and looping up to the next grade level. Please help me improve literacy skills in my classroom by providing my students with books to read during their independent time.

Students need to enjoy their 15 minutes of independent reading time, reading books that they enjoy!

Having these books in the classroom , will make my students want to read and turn the next page. My goal is for my students to improve their fluency skills and comprehension skills by reading the books in the morning. My students are special to me, because they enjoy reading and love to improve their literacy skills.
