My Project

As they increase their skills and confidence in reading, scholars are eager to check out chapter books for themselves. These series offer engaging stories at reading levels that are appropriate for young scholars transitioning to harder texts.

These chapter books would encourage scholars to further develop their literacy skills.

Additionally, these titles feature different genres and diverse characters, allowing scholars to find books that correspond to their interests and identities.

Adding these chapter book series to our classroom library would be a wonderful way to not only grow young readers' literacy skills, but to grow their love of reading.
