My Project

We live in a rural community. Our entire school uses our school reading sets. Our school consists of students from grades 3, 4, and 5.

My students love reading.

We take time to read every day. Reading improves vocabulary and language development. Reading boosts comprehension and critical thinking. Reading also improves forcus and perseverance.

I love watching my struggling readers as they gain confidence. My grade-level and gifted students kindly help my struggling students. Reading helps every student in multiple ways. Not only does it improve each student's literacy, it improves our classroom community by teaching teamwork and kindness.

My class and the entire school will benefit from your kindness. Please help my class and our school.
