My Project

Reading foundation is very important in early literacy. We are on a strict curriculum and we don't have a lot of time to devote to independent reading. We encourage students to read every night at home. Unfortunately, most students do not have books at home to practice reading. We also don't have many books to send from the classroom.

Students need books to take home and practice their reading skills.

These books are some of students' favorite characters and authors. Students will love to take these books home and read more about their favorite characters.
