My Project

My students have been busy reading this school year and have grown tremendously as readers. As an educator, I recently graduated with my Master's in Literacy and went back to get an additional certification in Literacy Coaching. Through my coursework, I’ve learned and grown in my views in terms of reading instruction and the Science of Reading.

Our first-grade students would benefit from these decodable texts, especially since they are filled with familiar characters often seen in Pioneer Valley books.

Each book focuses on a specific phonics skill and would help make sure that we have books available for first graders to put into practice the skills we are learning during our reading block.

Just as my students continue to learn and grow, I continue to grow as an educator. I know our classroom library and hallway bookroom are lacking in decodable texts that focus on specific skills; these new titles would be a huge asset to our literacy programming.
