My Students

Science is such a fun topic for my students. They are so excited to learn about the world around them! When I can integrate science and reading, my students grow as readers, scientists, and critical thinkers. However, it's challenging to find appropriate science books at a kindergarten level.

My students attend a rural Title I school in North Carolina.

The students and families work hard toward academic achievement. For many of my students, kindergarten is their first school experience and it is a year of great growth and change. Our class includes many English language learners from various cultures. My students love to learn about science and they love to read books that are at their independent level.

My Project

I have requested non-fiction books, particularly with science themes, that my students can read independently. Donating to this project will allow my students more independent reading opportunities with appropriate non-fiction books. My students will grow in science through their reading, and they will be more engaged in reading because of the science connections. This will strengthen our integrated units and provide further independent practice for students in reading and science.

The science-themed books I have requested will help kindergarten students for years to come.

My students will be encouraged to read books about real things and to read books that are easy to read! Donating to this project will support students as readers and scientists.
