My Project

Each unit with reading the students read a separate book and get creative with the main topic of the unit/book. This unit the topic is Modern Technology, we try to get books that the students will be interested in. In this unit the book I want the students to read is Ready player One, this book is a very interesting book that I know most of the students will like. They will learn about the impact technology has and the importance of not allowing technology to control your life. Thank you so much I know the students will LOVE this book!
