My Project

The Henry and Mudge and Frog and Toad books will be good transition books for my students to go from reading short stories to chapter books. The whisper phones will allow students to listen to themselves reading, while not disrupting the other peers who are reading.

I hope to create a rich classroom library to foster a love of reading.

I want to give my students a wide variety of books, with varying text lengths, difficulty, genres, and subjects.

My students are enthusiastic about reading and learning. They love to sit in the library and read, however I do not have many books for them. My students and I love books; let's start a great library together.
