My Project

When my students enter first grade, they are so excited to learn how to read! I love their enthusiasm! Our classroom library has lots of great literature and we celebrate literacy and story telling everyday. When it comes to the students learning HOW to read, I need to provide more focused, skill based books that follow the science of reading, like the books available as part of the Dandelion Launchers Set 1 and the Dandelion Launchers Set 1 Extras.

I am working to build up our classroom library to include more books that my students can read independently.

These sets of Little Sprout books will build on reading skills we have learned and give the kids lots of successful reading time. Thank you so much for helping us along our reading journey!
