My Project

My students learn best through book reading and play, which is why I have requested a variety of fun books to send home with them and to have in my classroom for us to read and learn from.

I love using different themes to teach new vocabulary and expand my students knowledge on a variety of subjects, which is why most of these books have to do with winter/spring and holidays that fall within those months.

I will use the Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to purchase book reading companions that go along with each of the stories in order to further their knowledge on each subject and be sure they have learned and understood new vocabulary through repetition in a variety of ways.
