To save your Favorites:

I have 25 wonderful students in the state of Texas. I work for a title 1 school, therefore all the funding we can get is greatly appreciated. My students are motivated learners and greatly desire to become better readers so that at the end of the year, they can pass and get commended performance on their state test. I have a very diverse classroom with many diverse backgrounds, but every single one of them has the desire to form their own reading paradise so that in the future they will be able to further their education and become successful leaders.
