My Project

These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I have worked hard to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. I read to them on the carpet, they complete work there, and they read independently! Each student book that is purchased will be treated with love and care. "Because of Winn Dixie", has been chosen with my students in mind. This year will be the first time these students have had an opportunity to complete a novel study, and I can't imagine a better book to start with.

With these new books, my students will be able to read a book that will allow them to learn about life from a different perspective.

The best way to grow in reading ability is to read more, and this book will help my students grow stronger in reading. My students have shown a strong interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
