My Project

I have a lemonade stand that raises money for a good cause so I understand how important it is to give back and to teach my students this as well! I want to add some high interest low books to my classroom and add a reading area in the classroom! I know these books and this fun creative space will encourage reluctant readers! I love teaching second grade! Once they learn to read finding just right books is key! I can’t wait to see their faces light up when they see new books!
