Sparking a love of reading is harder to do once a child passes third grade. They should be reading chapter books primarily and feel ashamed if they are still in picture books. Building a class library that includes grade level biographies, motivational books, and others that really maintain their interests in hard to keep up with new books. These books will impact my students by exposing them to a greater variety of books that are engaging, educational, and most of all available. I often am asked if they can take my library books home because they don't have anything to read. I would love to have more options for them so they ALWAYS have something to read at home.
