My Project

These novel sets will be used to enrich learning and promote comprehension among intermediate reading groups. Students will read and respond to higher level thinking questions, and participate in rigorous discussions. Additionally, students will use critical thinking strategies to complete a variety of activities, and share feedback with peers.

Students will utilize the novels to meet grade level standards, as well as focus on enrichment activities and skills.

Having access to a wide range of novels (both reading levels and topics), will encourage students to read across genres, and continue to foster our students' love for reading.
