My Project

Research has shown that reading series sets, along with texts that are at a student's reading level, are what kids need to become strong and independent readers. These books will help them reach their reading goals and keep them growing.

With these book series, students will be able to work on their reading skills, while reading fun and engaging stories!

My students will grow to be strong and independent readers. Each student will get to read these books in our classroom, as well as take them home to share with their families. I can’t wait to watch them learn and grow this year and the many years ahead!
