My Project

My students are always looking for new and exciting books to read in the classroom. We have a lot of fun books, but most are higher than their reading level. We are focusing on levels this year and reading for mastery.

My students love to read fun and exciting books on their independent reading level, but I need a little help giving them the books that they need at this time.

We love to spread out around the room and have silent reading time. This project would be a great addition to our classroom library!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
