Original Grant Overview
Goal
Most of what we read as adults is for information. Most of what students read is fictional. It is time to bridge the gap and bring engaging non-fiction into the classroom library. Students 5th-8th will have access to check out factual books on various interesting topics.
What will be done with my students
While these books can be read for pleasure, they will also be used for students to conduct passion-type projects. Students will choose any topic they would like to learn more about and share multimedia presentations with their classmates. This is a high interest way to motivate students to read and synthesize more non-fiction.
Benefits to my students
A measurable outcome of this project will be an increase in non-fiction reading comprehension. Increased exposure to expository texts will have a positive effect on FAST test scores. This not only will impact this year's students, but students for years to come.
