The books that I am requesting will help my students read and build their vocabulary at school and at home!! Some of my students do not have the opportunity to expand their reading and vocabulary at home. They can take what they learn home and share with their family. Vocabulary building is a key foundation for young readers! I want them to be able to get inside a book and explore their imaginations. I want my students to love reading as much as I do!! And be able to find books they are interested in and be able to keep going!
