My Project

"Reading gives us somewhere to go when we have to stay somewhere."

More books will offer my students a way to escape; a chance to learn about new places, meet new characters and get exposure to 1000s of words!

Some books will add to our read aloud bins. An opportunity for us to come together on the rug and read. A chance to share our predictions and thoughts on the text. Other books will be used for our book series. These books will allow my students to study characters and their traits while identifying the problem and solution in texts. In short, these books will help my students become better readers and deeper thinkers!
