My Project

My students love to read and be read to! These books correspond to an adapted book resource that will be purchased through Teachers Pay Teachers, and have been carefully chosen to align with my students' interests. This resource provides ready-made visual supports that will be printed, laminated, and velcroed into each book, as well as story maps, visual communication boards, and scaffolded supports for comprehension. My students are in need of highly engaging print materials that provide visual prompts and communication supports. They will thrive with books that are tactile, interactive, and adapted to their needs.

By donating to this project, you are supplying my class with interactive, adapted books that will improve reading comprehension, engagement levels, and foster my students' love for reading!
