My Project

Literature groups are a big part of our classroom focus for every level of learner. These books provide different levels of reading for all of my special education students. Confidence is built each and every day when my students can read relatable books and answer questions about them. They create a large spectrum of the imagination for my students. Even when they are struggling with work in other classes, reading literature books are a way for them to escape reality and not think about their struggles, even if it’s just for a small amount of time. These books would mean so much to myself and my students!
