My Project

This will be great for students that are not at grade level and need help to practice not only their writing but also help with their reading. This will increase their reading and help them to practice so that way they can be close to where they need to be. We have some 4th grade students that cannot read and or comprehend what they have read and felling the 4th grade. With this it will help students to not only to help them read but also increase their fluency and comprehension of what they read and get to the goals close to where they need to be.
