The Description
With these funds I will...
continue to encourage a love of books, which is a great way to prepare my scholars for their future environment.
The more books my scholars read, the faster their vocabulary is expanded. Books help them to learn new words and new ways of using the words that they already know.
Reading books regularly stimulates imagination, accelerates emotional development and fosters natural curiosity.
Scholars can quickly learn to visualize the scenarios mentioned in the stories by reading the text alone.
As scholars read different books, their knowledge on various subjects increases. This can help them become better students in school.
Reading books also improves their attention span.
Developing the habit of reading regularly from an early age helps scholars cope better with the rigors of academic education.
Our 3rd grade classes (105 scholars) need level P, Q, R, and S books.
So many of my scholars are reading at a 4th grade level but we don't have enough of these books to go around!
This set would be and awesome addition to our KEA 3rd grade scholars:
Above Level Leveled Reading Books
Back Up Plan
If we don't reach our goal, I will purchase fewer books to be shared with scholars.
