Picture This: Picture Books to Help Students With Dyslexia!

Help me give my students these literature books that are part of the Take Flight Comprehension program for student with Dyslexia.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Scott's classroom raised $402

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am a special education teacher working with students who have Dyslexia. One of the skills that are difficult for these students, along with the ability to decode, is reading comprehension. I am in the process of becoming a Certified Academic Language Therapist, and using the Take Flight Curriculum. However, the literature books that are required for this curriculum are not provided.

Using these literature books to teach listening and reading comprehension will be more engaging for my students.

It will give them the ability to grow their comprehension skills.
