My Project

My amazing 3rd graders are making so much progress in their independent reading and comprehension. We are officially on the way to being 4th graders and reading as much as we can to prepare. I am updating my novel studies this year, and excited to add a new one to our rotation.

A class set of Because of Winn Dixie will be a perfect addition to our classroom novel studies.

We are also hoping for more white construction paper, as we go through it quickly with 30 students and weekly art projects. Finally, I am asking for a gift card to Teachers Pay Teachers so I can continue to purchase engaging supplemental lessons and activities. Thank you SO much!
