My Project

The reading games and books will help my students with skills ranging from sounding out words to answering comprehension questions.

These games will encourage my students to want to read in a fun way!

My goal is that my students will not only build their reading skills, but become more confident when answering comprehension questions and understanding parts of stories.

My students are hard workers who want to learn. Sometimes they just need that extra push to help bring them up to the next level. They all learn in their own way and will truly benefit from this group of games that cover a wide range of learning targets.
