My Project

I teach students of all reading abilities. Many students who read above grade level need a variety of reading materials to connect them to the real world and promote a deeper level of thinking.

My book sets are currently falling apart from years of use.

Many of them are borrowed from other classrooms and are well-loved by the students who sink their imaginations into each chapter.

I would love to use these books (Stone Fox and The Tale of Despereaux) for my readers who are currently reading above grade level. Currently, I teach them for 30 minutes per day and hope to be able to encourage these young readers with a variety of reading material for years to come.
