My Project
My 300 plus elementary students are energetic and love learning. My students need encouragement and motivation to become better readers. This project can help provide weekly snacks to motivate to improve their reading habits and make gains in their reading levels this school year.
Snacks for Readers project will motivate students to do their best during the English Language Arts Block during the school day.
Many of the students receive free lunch and the snacks can push them to focus while participating in reading activities. My readers need motivation to keep going to achieve reading growth for the fourth quarter of school before summer break!
