My Project

I will be teaching students Kindergarten through 6th Grade and found a gap in my classroom library. I do not have any books that are suitable for my youngest learners.

In order to support my young learners, I need to provide them with decodable text that they can access.

When my students read decodable text, such as Elephant & Piggie and other decodable books listed, they are able to practice spelling patterns and cement those patterns in their brains.

I am excited to work with my students this year and hopefully some new and age-appropriate books will make this year memorable!
