When students have a variety of quality books at their disposal, they not only enjoy reading more, but most importantly their reading level increases naturally by being engaged in a "good book." We are a dual immersion class, so Spanish texts are a must! This is where we need the most support in. Additionally, the "check-out" system in my class also allows students to take books home so they can continue in their reading outside of school. At fifth grade in our program, they are taught 50/50. Our classroom library would be ideal to have a fairly equal amount of Spanish books. Depending on funding, I'd love to have more lit circles with Spanish titles.
