My Project

One way to grow vocabulary and language skills is to read (or listen to books). At the end of the last three school years, I sent home a new book with each of my students. My students loved receiving their very own books to take home. I wish to continue this tradition as my students have loved this end-of-the-school-year gift.

Help me give each of my students a brand-new book to read (or listen to) over the summer.

I have chosen a variety of titles that will definitely entice my students to either curl up with a book or curl up and listen to their parents read to them. I have also chosen Spanish titles to send home with my students whose home language is Spanish.

It would be amazing to continue giving my students the joy of reading as an end-of-year gift.
