Huddleston, VA Grades PreK-2

My second grade students are excited about reading and I would like to have more books for my beginning readers.

I have a lot of chapter books that are written on a third or fourth grade reading level but not a lot of choices for the beginning readers.

Some boys in my class have recently become interested in Star Wars and I found some Star Wars books written on a first grade reading level. I would like to provide these, along with a variety of engaging non-fiction books to my beginning readers.

Please help by putting exciting books in the hands of my students who are eager to learn.
