Help me give my students books and early literacy materials to help develop their reading skills and fluency.

My Project

My students love reading books and looking at pictures. They even enjoy more when they are able to read the words in the book. They have different reading level skills and different interests and my classroom library needs new books that are at the student level. So I would like to support them in getting more excited and having fun reading everyday.

By providing a variety of reading-leveled books and word games in the classroom, each student will have the chance to practice the skills that they still need to master and enjoy reading the books that they like.

Supporting students to learn to read at a young age will help them discover that reading is fun and is a perfect way to build better readers.
