The last year and a half has been difficult on my littles as they are just learning to put sounds together and recognize words, yet the availability of books at this very beginning level in my classroom is limited. They love to look at books and are ready to match pictures to print as they begin on a lifelong journey of being readers.
The success and feeling of accomplishment is priceless when they have a book in their hands appropriate for them to read. With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of topics that will interest and inspire. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
