Read Aloud Books

Help me give my students themed read aloud books that go along with what the children are learning in class.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Rhodes's classroom raised $265

This project is fully funded

My Project

These read aloud books will allow the children to expand their understanding of what we are learning about in class. Allowing the child to unpack what they are learning in every way from learning through play to instructional time gives children a better understanding and allows them to connect their learning experiences.

The students in my classroom are special because every student in every classroom is special.

My goal is to provide every student with high quality learning experiences. Having high quality books that can be used from year to year will ensure that I can effectively carry out this goal.
