Good Reads Foster Even Better Minds

Help me give my students the tools they need to be successful in reading!

My Project

These books were carefully chosen based on the needs of my students. Each student reads at their own pace and their own level.

These books will help widen the variety of books the students have to choose from during independent reading time and small group work!

When students are able to read books that they are interested in, they are more likely to enjoy the act of reading itself and if they like the book that they are reading, they are likely to improve their reading skills. It would be greatly appreciated if I were able to provide my students with more reading opportunities.
