The materials I'm asking for will have two homes. Students will be able to use their imaginations while reading high interest books when in school or at home. Once they find a book that they don't want to put down that will mark the beginning of their love of reading for pleasure or knowledge. Books will complete IMAGINATION STATION and allow students to go places they've only dreamed about. They will meet characters that they can relate to. They will learn about the past and venture into the future with high interest books to choose from. The classroom is ready. Students will enjoy sitting in the comfy chairs provided. The lamps will light up IMAGINATION STATION so students can escape into their imaginations. My students will eventually love to read for pleasure and more.
