My Project

I would like to provide my students with Lakeshore’s Daily Math and Reading Journals for next year’s morning work. I have used these resources for many years and have found them to be highly effective in supporting third grade students’ growth in both reading comprehension and mathematical skills.

Through the reading journal, students practice key comprehension skills such as identifying the main idea and supporting details, making inferences, sequencing events, understanding vocabulary in context, and responding to text through short written answers.

The math journal reinforces important third-grade concepts including multiplication and division, place value, problem-solving strategies, fractions, measurement, and interpreting data.

These journals provide consistent, meaningful practice that strengthens foundational skills, builds confidence, and helps students start their day engaged and ready to learn.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
