Love of Literacy for Special Education Students and Families

Help me give my students a new book to take home to share a love of literacy!

My Project

The books will support my goal of wanting to send home a book a month for each student. We will read the book in class and afterward, they will be able to take it home to share their story with their family to help build a connection between home and school. The love of literacy is a gift that will last a lifetime and I hope to be the spark to ignite that love.

The velcro-like dots will help create file folder work tasks to support their individualized goals.

The tasks support and reinforce new skills.

On behalf of my K-5 Special Education classroom, thank you for considering supporting my project.

Ms. Martinez
Grades 3-5
