I am a fifth grade teacher in a low-income public school in Bronx, NY. I have been lucky enough to have a motivated group this year, and I am very proud of the strides they have made in reading. I have a tried with some success to set up a leveled library for them, but some of my students are reading at a higher level. Sadly, I do not have enough books for them to read past their current level. On the other end, I have some struggling readers who read at low levels and I have few books for them to choose from. I want my students to succeed in reading, but they need more books. The resources provided at my school are not adequate enough to meet their needs. My higher-level readers have resorted to reading lower-level books and my lower functioning readers are reading books above their reading level.
