4th grade Rocket Readers hasn't added a story.
“Any book that helps a child to form a habit of reading, to make reading one of his deep and continuing needs, is good for him.” - Maya Angelou
This year ⅓ of our fourth graders are coming to us at kindergarten through 2nd grade reading levels. Older students who are behind in reading are not motivated to read books that look like they are made for kindergarten. The solution lies in having books where the covers look engaging, and the kids can connect to the characters and pictures. A 10-year-old who is still learning the reading skills of a 1st grader deserves a book that helps him/her fall in love with reading.
This project is supported by the Beaverton Education Foundation.
Founded in 1988, the Beaverton Education Foundation raises money to provide hands-on innovative academic enrichment and advancement programs & projects that go beyond normal school funding at all Beaverton public schools and is a 501(c)(3) community-based nonprofit organization. BEF mobilizes community resources to fund innovative classroom projects, summer and after-school programs.
In the event that this project does not reach its goal or exceeds its goal, BEF may apply the funds received to another similar project.
