My Project

This year we focused a lot on our reading comprehension and the joy of reading. Our last read aloud was “Because of Winn Dixie” by Kate DiCamillo. I would like to get a copy of this book for each student to enjoy! This book was used during read aloud but i would love the children to be able to have their own individual copy to read and enjoy on their own. Many of the students really connected to the themes and characters in the book. THANK YOU so much for supporting my classroom this year.
