My Project

My students are joyful learners who are passionate about excelling and working together as a team! Not only are my students interested in meeting our end-of-year reading benchmarks, but they look forward to exceeding them! These high-interest decodable books that consist of sight words, blends, short vowels, long vowels, and digraphs are just what it will take to help get them there! These books will be enough to satisfy both guided reading centers and independent reading!

These books will also provide a broader selection in our classroom library in which students will have an opportunity to choose from a variety of just-for-me books!
