My Project

My students range in age from 8 to 11. Some already know how to read and others are just learning. As a Title 1 teacher one of my goals is to not only teach children how to read but also to support them in becoming lifelong lovers of reading! The best way to do this is to put excellent books in their hands and to offer them time to talk about their reading with friends, family and teachers. The books in this project will offer just this kind of opportunity. Thank you so much for considering this request.

Grades 3-5
