My Project

My students truly love to read. Unfortunately, my classroom library does not have many books for my students to choose from to read daily. Filling our baskets (that were also donated from a generous donor) will give my students a wide selection of books to choose from rather than the 5-6 books that I have from each reading level (level m - level v). They can build on their fluency, comprehension, and decoding skills.

Reading will allow my students to improve their focus, memory, empathy, and communication skills.

I am also asking for rewards to give my students and well as baskets to place their group work.
