My Project

I have a 2nd/3rd grade combo class. I have the most amazing students in the universe! They are super bright and need more advanced reading material in the class library than what I have to offer at this time. They are all reading at or above grade level.

My goals for this project would be do get more reading material to keep the students engaged in their love of reading.

My students are avid readers and always beg to read when they finish their work. They choose reading over playing games!
