My Project

We read all the time in our class. These books will add to our classroom library.

These books will go well with the season/holidays & make literacy fun!

I've purchased the "Companion" book packets from Teachers Pay Teachers and now we just need the books to go along with it. These companion packets allow us to focus on pictures and vocabulary, sequencing, and comprehension. There's also a fun little craft, too! We just need the books to make the activities come to life!

These are fun and cute books to help supplement fall, Halloween, Thanksgiving, winter, and Christmas! We also have some fun social books mixed in!
