My Students

Every day we go to literacy stations and one of the literacy stations is read to self. The students read books on their level for 20 minutes. The students love this time of day and want to go to that station everyday.

Reading is the Key to ALL Success!

I teach awesome students in a high poverty, Title 1 school. Each student comes with different sets of abilities. They are wonderful students that are wanting to learn and increase their knowledge. I teach students that have many different backgrounds, including students who are ESOL. I love watching my students grow in their reading and daily life.

My Project

My students need nonfiction leveled reading book sets to help each child succeed at their individual level. Leveled readers will help my students in literacy stations, small groups, independent reading time, science and social studies. By having leveled readers, the students will be able to have the right book for them to help them succeed in the classroom. They will be able to research different topics and use their reading level. First grade is an important year where they are learning different sounds, words and learning how to read fluently. The level readers will help with this.

By donating to this project, it will make a difference because every child deserves to have the best education and chance that I can give them as their teacher.

Leveled books help give those children that struggle a better chance of succeeding with their reading skills.
