My Project
This may sound simple, but it's not always easy to find books on subjects reluctant readers like!
First Grade students are very busy creatures and finding topics that interest some of them long enough to get them to sit down can be challenging.
Help engage young learners in reading with these high-interest books that many students are particularly fond of.
Books like: Who Would Win?, Dog Man, Owl Diaries, Fly Guy, Pigeon, Piggie and Elephant, and What if you had animal Teeth! These books are particular First Grade favorites! Help us build an inviting book collection with topics that are eye-catching for those who are still learning that reading is fun!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
