My Project

My students love to read. These fiction and nonfiction books would be used on a daily basis. I will be using these books for daily reading time to reinforce their fluency skills, comprehension skills, and accuracy skills. These leveled texts would allow students to practice "at their appropriate reading level," helping them to advance reading levels.

My goal is to use these books to develop their writing skills through daily activities and lessons throughout the week.

Grammar, vocabulary, and high frequency words will also be integrated into the story and the lessons used with it.

Students would love to have a selection of books to choose from each day. These texts would help students develop comprehension skills, build reading fluency, and increase reading levels.

I am also in need of several items to help stock my classroom for the upcoming school year. We are running low on a lot of basic supplies and would love to start this year with these supplies ready to go!

There are so many supplies that are needed to make a classroom organized, welcoming, and ready to learn. In addition to basics that are needed, I am also asking for several items that will help us in our classroom.
