My Project

These books are the top two authors that my first grade students love to read. They have silly stories, meaningful concepts, and help students stay engaged while reading. I have had various readers from below level to above level that will continuously go back to these books because they enjoy them so much. Many of my students don’t have libraries at home being in the military and changing locations every three years can make building home libraries a challenge. This will help me allow students to take books home for reading and still be able to use them in class to reinforce topics that are introduced.
