My Project

Book bins will be used to revamp and organize my current classroom library. The bins I am now using are old, cracked and very dirty. The new boxes will brighten up the classroom and assist in students taking better care of the books and boxes.

The Orton-Gillingham based phonics books of passages will assist in small groups to allow students to practice fluently reading with minimal support.

Since the books are sequenced with a Orton-Gillingham-based structure; the passages will follow the same sequence as my small group structure making the passages more streamlined to support student reading achievement.
