My Project

I am a first year teacher and these Dr. Suess's books will help my children learn the importance of reading. At a young age reading will catch their attention and activate their imagination which will lay down a strong reading foundation for the future.

For my project I hope to inspire the love of reading.

I hope by reading these books to my kids each day they will want to read more in the years to come. I want to show them that reading can be fun and silly and is something they can enjoy.

My students are very special. most of them come from low income families' and do not have books at home to enjoy. I am also EC pre-k and out Autistic children love to books and enjoy being read to. My students love reading time and look forward to a book each day and I believe that these books will all more excitement to our classroom.
