My Project

We are a Title 1 public school in Staten Island. Next year, we are starting a new Reading curriculum that is based in the Science of Reading. As with all NYC public schools, finds and quality materials/resources are hard to come by. I am hoping to build up a significant store of supplemental resources to help my students meet their reading goals.

Focusing on phonics, I hope to have more students meeting goals in less time.

Getting their hands on books appropriate to their current reading stage, as well as the next stage, will aid them in meeting those goals in a timely manner.

Grades PreK-2
