My Students

My students need extra practice reading in order to become fluent readers.

My students are eager learners who need extra resources to reinforce their reading skills.

They come from low socioeconomic families. In order to become proficient readers, they will need phonics books to practice reading at home and at school. These books will give them the wider selection of materials to read.

My Project

My students need Sound Adventure Phonics Book Set of 21 to improve their reading skills. My students will use these books at school to improve their reading fluency. I will also send books home to practice reading to their parents. Hopefully, these books will help motivate my students read more at home. They can model this activity to younger siblings.

Being a proficient reader can unlock many doors for my low socio economic students.

Reading can allow them to explore their interest and pursue their dreams. These books can provide the extra practice and possibly the incentive to read more often.
