Books to Love

My students need engaging guided reading book sets for struggling readers!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ahern's classroom raised $169

This project is fully funded

My Students

My loves are first graders in a large urban district. They work hard, against pretty incredible challenges, to learn to read, write, explore, and love math! As inclusion students, these children have special learning needs or are compassionate, kind models for children who do. This environment brings out the best in these six and seven year olds, but they need all the help they can get in maintaining this tall task through the school year in a rigorous academic environment!

My Project

Most students learn to read at a similar pace. For those students we have just right books. Many children learn at a slower pace, and that is why we have inclusive classrooms. Every child needs exciting books to fall in love with as they put together the pieces of fluent reading.

These books will give every child a chance to learn!

The search is on for exciting books that are leveled just right for children who need a bit more time at each reading level. These children are making excellent progress. New and fun books would this train chugging along!
