Original Grant Overview
Goal
The goal of this project is for students to develop a love for reading while improving their reading skills of comprehension (understanding what was read), fluency (reading at an appropriate rate) and decoding (reading individual words).
What will be done with my students
Sunshine State Young Readers Award Jr. is a program created by the Florida Association for Media in Education. This program was designed to develop student interest in reading for pleasure by exposing them to a wide range of appropriate literature. Sunshine State Jr. books are selected for their wide appeal, literary value, varied genres, curriculum connections, and/or multicultural representation. Students will be able to read all fifteen of this year's books. They will work on their comprehension, fluency and decoding while earning brag tags for each book read. Students will all receive a key chain to hold their brag tags.
Benefits to my students
My students will improve their reading skills and develop a love for reading by exposing them to varied and diverse literature.
Budget Narrative
$77.50 will be spent on brag tags and key chains for each child. The remainder ($195.50) will be used to purchase the fifteen Sunshine State Jr. books.
