Do you remember when you learned how to read? Do you remember bringing home a book to read with your mom, dad, or family member? I do...and I remember how proud of myself I was when I was able to READ a book ALL BY MYSELF!
I teach 1st grade at an AMAZING public school in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina.
I love the enthusiasm my students have towards learning. It is their enthusiasm that encourages me to look for ways to enhance my teaching and find great, innovative materials to make learning fun. Their love of learning is what drives me to give them the best because that is what they deserve!
My Project
I would like to add new books to my classroom take-home library. These books will help fill my library with even more level-appropriate books designed to get students excited about reading!
These books include high-interest topics, full-color photos and accessible text for beginning readers which will help my students develop reading fluency and increase comprehension!
By adding these books to my take-home library, my students will have more choices when they choose books to take home and read on a weekly basis.
I want my students to experience the same level of pride I did when I brought home books to share when I was in 1st grade!
Please help my students become successful and enthusiastic readers with these specially selected books!
