My Students

Do you remember the first time you said "I Can Read"? Well I can't wait to hear those words come out of the mouths of my fabulous first graders. First grade is an amazing year. It is a year that you see the children blossom into wonderful readers. It is a year that they develop a love for reading. I want my first graders to pick up a book without being told. I want them to have books that they can read and feel successful. I want them to say "I can read" from the moment they enter the room.

My Project

THE MORE YOU READ THE SMARTER YOU GET is a phrase you hear in my classroom all the time. I want my kids to be able to find books that interest them quickly and easily. These book bins would be perfect to set up an inviting classroom library. I would be able to sort the books and label the bins for easy access. My students would walk into my classroom library and be so excited to choose a book. The eagerness to read will make them better readers and they would develop a love for reading at an early age.
