Reading

I am a huge fan of Reading and I think this is a huge tool students should be able to accomplish before they leave the first grade. I think Reading should be a huge part of education. One way I plan to help children with their reading skills is through reading groups. I plan to have the students in my class who can read well and have a high reading level to be in the same group as a student who can not read as well with a low reading level. The reason I think this will be a success in my classroom is that not only are the children who can not read as well are learning how to read, but the children who can read well are getting extra practice at reading as well as learning how to help their peers.
