I have the pleasure of looping with my students into 5th grade. This past year, I have worked very hard to assess student reading levels and to provide leveled books to all the students in order to continue to promote growth. All of my students have shown growth in reading and are reading close to grade level or at grade level. Some are even reading at a 6th grade level! I help the students track their growth and set reading goals. This holds them accountable to themselves and motivates them to continue reading. They look forward to our 40 minutes of daily reading time. During this time, they are given free choice in reading as long as they choose a book that is at their independent reading level. In order to continue promoting this love for reading, I need to include new books into my classroom library for the students to read and bins to use for storage. Please help us buy purchasing books for my students to read.
