My Students

They may be under 18, but my students are able to vote in one state election - the Rhode Island Children's Book Award (RICBA). The nominees were just announced, and many kids want to start reading now ... but we don't have most of the titles in our libraries.

I am the librarian for two elementary schools, both filled with creative, fun kids who like to read.

However, keeping the libraries stocked with new material is a challenge. Our district orders don't come in until September. That's months away! My students want to start reading the RICBA nominees now.

My Project

To qualify to vote in the RICBA election, students in grades 3-5 must read at least three nominees ... some try to read all 20! The list encompasses a wide range of genres and styles, getting kids to try out types of books they wouldn't usually read. But they can't do that without having the books in our collections.

Providing the RICBA nominees to my students will help them participate in a statewide activity while getting an introduction to literary criticism.

They are excited to have the chance to influence the outcome of an election ... please help get them the opportunity to vote!
