Independent Reading

Help me give my students the classroom sets of My Side of the Mountain and Rikki-Tikki-Tavi to allow my students to participate in the independent reading portion of our reading curriculum we have recently adopted in our district.

My Project

The classroom book sets of "My Side of the Mountain" and "Tikki-Tikii-Tavi" would be used in conjunction with our reading curriculum we recently adopted in our school district. Students would read the books independently as the titles coincide with the reading required in the curriculum.

Students will use "My Side of the Mountain" and "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi" for their book projects, which are required each quarter, in order to attend the quarterly incentive we do throughout the school year.

These two book sets will be a positive addition to my classroom library.
