My Students

While I have not found out who I will have in my class this year, I know that all the students at my school are just so deserving! Our students always work so hard and love when we get to do fun and exciting things! We are a Title I school and many students cannot afford the extra supplies.

My Project

These two novels follow right along with our brand new reading curriculum. Students love a good novel study and love having their own copies of the book to hold in their hands as we read them together.

These two novels will be a great addition to our classroom novel sets.

The students love books that they can relate to and that is exactly what these novels are. The only way my students will be able to get these new novels is with your help! Please help my students and myself get these novels so that we can have a fun and successful year with our reading goals.
