My Project

Some students at K-W need some extra support in reading classes. Here at K-W, we are so lucky to have the opportunity to have the ability to differentiate for all students in grades 5-8 that may need additional reading support.

Reading is a way for us to not only see stories about ourselves, but also learn about others.

As this program continues to evolve, Ms. Quam and I are working on making longer works of literature fun and engaging for these readers.

We've selected sets of novels (and a few engaging nonfiction books) that connect to the intervention workshops we use in our classes. These novels will help support their continued learning on some really great essential questions like: What are the perks of being a part of a team? and Why do writers share stories about their lives?

Mrs. McAnally will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by September 6.
