Phonics for Big Kids!

Help me give my students phonics readers that are interesting to 3rd grade students. Mysteries, fantasy, and fun chapter books keep them engaged and loving to read while also assisting them in memorizing phonics.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Trish's classroom raised $701

My Project

Practice, practice, practice. No matter what age or grade practice is key to learning to read. That being said students who are closer to the age of 9 are not always excited to read "The Bob Books," even though they are great books. In reading groups chapter books that are interesting and engaging will help grow these hardworking, determined kids into fluent readers.

Because of COVID and other struggles, some great kids have gotten behind in a number of areas, such as learning their phonics and using it to read.

These young people desire to be able to do what other children in their classes are doing and we want to support them and assist in their success. These books will be a real asset in completing that journey and mastering that skill.
