Having access to books that meet students at exactly their decoding level is essential as we grow our youngest readers. Being able to match students with these texts is allowing us to adjust instruction and accelerate student learning. We are able to more easily differentiate our instruction for these students. These books have also filled a need we had regarding blends. We are able to utilize the books as immediate practice with blends after introducing the concept to or reviewing the concept with our students. The application is the most powerful piece of learning, and that is the role these books are fulfilling. By funding this project, you have made a difference in the lives of our students. \r\n\r\nThe students are so proud of themselves because they are able to read books!
