My Students

My 3rd graders are eager to learn! They are creative, thoughtful, and ask a million questions each day! They absolutely love reading and are so excited to check out books at our school library or from my small classroom library. My voracious readers are just starting to ease their way into reading chapter books and I couldn’t be more proud of their curiosity and excitement!

My Project

These books that I have selected will help me to build my small classroom library and give more students opportunities to choose high interest chapter books that they cannot wait to get their hands on! All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind-I have watched them the past few weeks of school read titles just like these, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time. I will use the TPT card to find lessons and activities to go with our new titles.
