My Project

My students are so excited to participate in our school wide reading program, Battle of the Books, however, our school funding has been cut and the books are not provided for my students. They were only given a list of books to read and encouraged to find these books through their local libraries. This can be an overwhelming task for students to accomplish with no books provided.

With these new books, my students will be able to accomplish their goals of reading the assigned books and participate in our school wide reading program!

These 9 and 10 year old students are hard workers, so motivated, and have such a strong desire to accomplish their academic goals.

They will also enjoy being scientists as they explore, and investigate energy experiments, creating circuits and analyzing energy concepts with the donated energy sticks! My students show great interest, and astonishment in learning!
