My Project

My district is adopting the Amplify Science of Reading series for our school district.

I would love to have books to read over the summer so I can learn about the Science of Reading so I will be able to successfully implement it in my classroom this fall.

I am excited to learn about new ways to teach the children reading and writing skills. I feel the books I am requesting will give me a good background and foundation in implementing the new curriculum in the fall. I would love to have these books over the summer so I could have the time to read about the Science of Reading and plan ways to use it in my classroom in the future.
