My Project

Books are incredible in so many ways. First grade is huge for Reading and to help kids love reading. I love to teach through books and all these books have great lessons on being kind and helping others. In our world these days a little bit of kindess can go a long ways.

All of these books will used for years to come and I can build great lessons with them.

if I can get kids to enjoy reading the more they will want to learn to read. Reading is a life long adventure!
