My Project

My First Graders are very eager to read and learn more. The reality is that we don't have enough books for them to read and explore. Having leveled books for students will definitely enhance their love for reading, which will eventually impact their academic ability. Reading is fundamental in First Grade and they need to be exposed to books of different genres. Statistics have shown that is students don't master certain reading skills in their early years, the chances of them becoming good readers are very limited.
