My Project

I am moving from 2nd grade to 6th grade and need to acquire new whole class read-alouds. I am asking for a variety of genres, allowing for deeper conversation with the students as they compare/contrast and justify their opinions.

By funding this project, not only will the students get to hear a read-aloud, they will get to follow along with an actual book, this will increase their attention as well as understanding.

I can't wait to take the 6th graders on a literature adventure! Thank you in advance for considering my project.
