My Project

Our students struggle with reading comprehension. To help them improve their reading, we teach students to annotate what they read in order to better understand what they are reading.

In order to help our students improve their reading skills, we need paper for reading materials to help the students annotate what they read.

Students who annotate what they read, are more likely to understand what they read. My project is for paper to be able to print each students interesting articles about history, geography, and government so they can annotate and color code the important facts of the reading materials.
