A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
Every Friday, my students participate in an "Independent Reading Routine," which gives them dedicated and protected time to read books of their choosing. This activity fosters a sense of autonomy and ownership over their reading experience. It offers them time to develop their reading habits based on their interests and reading levels. Students enjoy this part of the week, and I hope to continue building up my classroom library and reading corner so every student can find a book that resonates with them.
Students deserve the materials to develop a love for reading.
We have excellent resources, such as the school library, NYPL online services, and other websites, to locate literature. However, a classroom library offers easy access to a diverse selection of books. If students are surrounded by powerful voices and stories, they can cultivate a lifelong passion for reading.
I hope to promote a sense of ownership and engagement for my students. I have selected books that appeal to their interests and offer a variety of viewpoints. These will help create a welcoming space for students to relax and enjoy reading.
More than half of students from low‑income households
