Decodable Books and a Whiteboard Table

Help me give my students new decodable books and a whiteboard table to accelerate student learning!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Sheffield's classroom raised $994

My Project

The most effective way to increase a child's reading ability is to find books that interest them so that they are more likely to read more often!

Our students' learning will accelerate once they are able to decode and encode the various spelling patterns that are offered in these new high-interest decodable books!

Our older students need high-interest decodable books and a whiteboard table to help them learn alternative vowel spelling patterns.

With these books and the whiteboard table to practice encoding, our students will become better readers and spellers. These materials will help to enrich their learning experience. The books and whiteboard table will also bring excitement into their reading intervention time!
