One area my students struggle with is reading. I want my students to love reading, just as much as I do. Therefore, I am requesting a class set of books. Reading should be exciting; it should be an adventure. It is my hope that with these books my students will become lifelong readers. All it takes is one good book, to make you want to devour more and more. This unit will consist of literature circles, that will inspire discussions, teach students engaging lessons, not only about literature, but about life choices and the lessons we learn from these choices.
