This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My third grade scholars need books for our classroom library for independent reading time in our classroom as well as early finishers. This will allow scholars to expand their background knowledge if they have a variety of books to choose from in our library. We need modern day books for our classroom.
A lot of our books are so old and out dated that they are falling apart making it difficult for my scholars to enjoy a good read during class time.
Being that they do not have many to choose from, it stems frustration in our classroom. Being able to read different genres fosters a love for reading and increases their literal and inferential comprehension as they grow and develop into wonderful critical thinkers.
My Project
The books/products I chose below will have a significant impact on my student's ability to draw conclusions and increase their comprehension skills. They include text series and popular novels. For example, the series sets will be used during literature circles to differentiate instruction with our reading skills and the other genre of books will be placed into our library for everyday reading. This will also offer more advanced readers challenges as they read above their grade level in certain novels!
Student's will have an opportunity to participate in novel study units with different books based on their reading levels and interact with their peers!
