My students will have access to these books in the classroom as well as to share their passion for learning with their loved ones at home. Our borrowing library is open for students to freely feel they are entitled to love reading and if they wish to read the book several times, then our mission is serving its purpose. Feeling connected to linguistically and culturally diverse books promotes, metalinguistic awareness and pride in our bilingual learners. I would never want to rob them the opportunity to embrace a book they love if they wish to take it home. As their teacher I will use these texts as mentor texts for books they can be inspired to mimic, as authors pull their interests as readers. In addition, I hope to inspire their reading fluency and comprehension by dramatizing the voices of the characters in these books which are mirrors to their lives. I hope to promote vocabulary expansion as they learn new words. This is my mission.
