I teach a group of First Grade students that is a mixture of English speakers, Spanish speakers, and students with special needs. The school that I work at has a high population of students who are eligible for free/reduced lunch. Many of my students do not have books at home to enjoy therefore I want to create a classroom environment where books are plentiful and reading is cherished. My students have worked so hard to learn to read this year and they continue to improve their skills. I want to make sure that the books in my classroom are age appropriate and relate to their interests so they continue to be excited about reading.
