During literacy rotations, kids will have a chance to spend time in our class library. Students are reading every day for 25 minutes with a minimum of 8 books in their book baggies. Each week students are switching out their books for new books. However, after a few weeks, book baskets will be empty and students will be repeating books. The best way to get them excited to read is to have books available that grab their attention and cover characters and topics of interest to them. It's wonderful when they are so excited that they want to share a book with a friend. These are titles of books and topics they told me they want, they are very excited about the possibility of new books! My school is partnering with Teacher's College to implement the reader's and writer's workshop. I understand the importance of a large classroom library for my students to have books available to them within the classroom. They see literature surrounding them and will be able to take advantage of getting lost in a book during the school day. Kids will have a wide variety of topics to read about and new books to explore. With the addition of new pre-emergent books in the classroom library, all students will feel successful in reading. This will get kids invested in our classroom library and excited about reading- not only this year but for years to come!
