Because I am a traveling teacher, my project is to create a portable career resource library with a Safco Wire Book Cart. The career resource books will be specifically for English language learners who are reading between a third and sixth grade level. Because books at this level are not readily available in a high school library, having a classroom library will allow me to provide my English language learners with reading materials at their independent and instructional reading levels. Appropriately leveled text is the absolute key to increasing student reading achievement and overall success in high school. Books about different careers are of high interest and essential to high school students who are preparing for their future. Students often do not know all the career options that are available and will use books such as Dream Jobs in Green and Sustainable Living or Dream Jobs in Human Services to explore options. Once students identify a career they want to learn more about, they will use the text to increase their technical knowledge, vocabulary, and reading speed.
