My Project

These books will bring the joy of reading in my classroom. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind. I have asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them to enjoy independent reading time.

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of high-interest books at their level that will allow them to read independently.

The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading.
