These books will help build a classroom library for my students who struggle with comprehension, and my students who love to explore by reading fiction and nonfiction books. Each book will allow students to discover a magical world which they may otherwise never know. These books will allow my students to use metacognitive skills to develop strategies to help their comprehension of both fiction and nonfiction text. For example, the Junie B. Jones' books are written in a narrative format which will allow students to easily monitor their own comprehension by making inferences about the text and self-correcting those inferences based on context clues from the book. By reading narratives such as Junie B. Jones' books, students are able to build the framework for metacognitive skills. The Time For Kids magazines would provide students with motivating text which will reinforce concepts taught in reading and history. The Time For Kids magazine has an interactive white board component, available digital text and activities which would be used to help students learn about various historical events and give extended practice for comprehension strategies learned in reading. These fiction and nonfiction texts will give my students the resources needed to develop good metacognitive skills which are essential to the success of mastering common core standards.
