My Project

I always aspire to help students find and develop their love of reading! One perfect way to do this is for us to read novels together as a class!

I chose Black Beauty and Old Yeller because they are classics and they work perfectly with my curriculum.

As a class, we will read each of these novels from beginning to end. We will stop along the way to discuss the characters, conflict, theme, and many more reading skills students need in order to become strong readers.

Having these novels will provide my students with the chance to read entire novels, grow in their reading skills, and hopefully start to love reading!
