My Project

My first grade students are just starting to read! This year we have been able to partner up with a fifth grade class every week so that the children can practice reading to an older student who can guide them and provide feedback. In turn, the fifth grade students can read to the first graders while modeling tone and inflection. This is a beautiful partnership because regardless of reading level, there is a partnership that works for everyone, so each child ends up feeling successful and supported.

My students would like to make bookmarks for their book buddies and also for the patrons of the public library.

Last year we were able to drop off hundreds of bookmarks at our town library and it motivated kids to visit the library with their families to see their bookmarks and to check out books! This was a very engaging project with my class and a beautiful partnership with the local librarian. I would love to continue this tradition with my class spreading positive messages about reading throughout our community- one bookmark at a time!
