If my project is funded it will put nonfiction texts in the hands of 300 students in grades K-2. We recently adopted the Lucy Calkins reading resource for our school. We were able to purchase all of the teacher guides and mentor texts for teacher instruction. However, we were not able to purchase the necessary nonfiction guided reading books for our K-2 students that would support the nonfiction reading units taught by our teachers. Our teachers don't have classroom libraries that support this need. If each of our K-2 classroom teachers could have been afforded the necessary nonfiction classroom library of books, our students would have the luxury of being exposed to and engaging with authentic nonfiction texts that are reading level appropriate and support our nonfiction reading units. It is very easy to find fiction texts that are appropriate for K-2 but nonfiction texts that fit the readability levels of our students is where our school is not meeting the needs of our scholars as readers. We don't have textbooks at our school which would generally provide exposure to all genres of reading. Real world reading requires nonfiction texts!
