My Students

At our school, our scholars spend their days immersed in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies. They work hard to explore each novel, carefully craft each paragraph, and work cooperatively exploring and discovering exciting worlds and new possibilities.

Reading is their chosen mode of transportation, and they eagerly seek out new fuel.

My 5th graders are just starting to stretch their legs into what it means to be independent and self-sufficient and are itching to be big, bad, EXCELLENT, middle-schoolers!

My Project

All of the books in my list are some of this year's Sunshine State Young Readers, or are books designed to help build up reading strengths. Our school has an incentive program with these books. Scholars take a short quiz after completing the book to check for comprehension. Scholars can win brag tags, and cool school gear as well as participation in our end of the year reading celebration (the bounce castle is always a fan-favorite).

The tools and gadgets are to help fidgety readers get out their movements while still staying on task.

Readers will be able to move and groove without needing to distract others.
