My Project

These books and items will continue enhancing the print-rich classroom I am creating. My cozy reading space is where my students ask to sit: they enjoy the bean bags and floor pillows while reading, completing their work, or taking a break. All these titles were chosen with my students in mind.

I will be reading books from this project to my students as a way to enhance their reading.

My goal is to increase my students' love for reading.

My students all have a learning disability and are in a Middle School Life Skills Support classroom. These books enrich their lives.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
