My Project
This year in order to encourage my students to read more and enjoy reading, I decided to create a Hawaiian themed book club. My 7th and 8th graders who struggle with reading but are also special needs students can benefit from themed book club that can encourage more reading and learning on a daily basis. Students will have the opportunity to pick from a selection of monthly themed books and enjoy the space where they feel comfortable and welcomed to explore their reading and learn from the book selections they choose.
Students will have the opportunity to sit in reading nooks and spaces where they can be comfortable during independent reading.
Students will participate in group book discussions where we can share knowledge over snacks. In a space where they feel inviting and want to share knowledge.
My goal for this project is for students to want to enjoy reading and learning at any grade level. Students will have opportunities to select stories of interest and opportunities to share knowledge with other students. Ultimately, increasing their reading levels and skill sets.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
