My Project

I love to make learning fun in my classroom. My second grade students absolutely love to read! But sometimes, they struggle with books that sustain their attention. They have recently been interested in the Pizza and Taco books, along with some other funny books.

Please help me expand my classroom library by helping me get more fun and engaging books for my students specifically Pizza themed books.

These books will help them with their decoding skills, their reading comprehension and their stamina. I know that they will absolutely love reading these books. The fraction pizza pieces will be used during our math block. It will be a week long pizza unit. Talk about fun!
