Accessible Books

Help me give my students assessable books to match their reading level in ELA.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Watson's classroom raised $825

My Project

As the school year progresses, we are working on building our stamina during our ELA classes. As a class we want to build up our time to 20 minutes of uninterrupted reading.

The students I work with struggle to find books accessible to their reading levels on a day-to-day basis.

This prevents them from being able to fully enjoy the silent reading time.

With these books, my students will not only be able to read them independently, but they will move up levels as they continue to grow their reading knowledge.
