My Project

My students in fourth grade all read at a variety of different reading levels. This project would help to ensure that all my students would be able to access the library. These beginning chapter books help to build the sight words and vocabulary for my learners. It has been incredible to see them gaining more confidence in reading and ultimately contributing to the class discussion more! These books would allow them the ability to participate in book discussions in small groups. Students love these groups and our classroom would benefit from more!
