Help me give my students the correct Leveled Books to Read Daily according to their reading level. The items in my cart are leveled books that will be used for independant and peer reading.
This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My Classroom consists of 25 amazing students bursting with potential. My students are energetic, inquisitive learners and have the capability to explore the world within their classroom
Of those wonderful students three are ESL, where English is a second language.
I teach in a rural area with students coming from various cultural and backgrounds. 100% of the school’s population receives free meals. School uniforms are often donated for some students. My first grade students are very excited and eager to improve their reading skills and continue to develop their love for reading.
My Project
Once per week my students will select books from the classroom library based on their reading level and interests. They will place these books in their book boxes and read them daily at “DEAR” (drop everything and read) reading time. These books will be on students reading level so they will be able to read independently. Students will also read these leveled books to a partner in centers. This will allow the students to improve their reading skills, become more confident readers, and develop their sight words vocabulary and reading comprehension skill.
By providing students with the perfect leveled books to meet their needs, students will develop the necessary skills to be literate.
The ability to read is the most crucial aspect in educating a child. If a student is able to read competently this will lend itself to the student excelling in all areas of their academic life. These books will also increase the joy of reading because they are on their level and they are able to read them proficiently.
