I know that the best way for children to learn to read is through reading itself. The donations for this project will help students read with enthusiasm and voracity. These new books will help my students feel connected to the subject matter that they are reading because I have chosen texts with characters that reflect their backgrounds. For this reason, I have selected graphic novels, mysteries, and chapter book series with African American, Asian, and Latino/a protagonists. Students will have the opportunity to check the books out from my library, bring the books home to read each night, and share their learning with their siblings and families. I have also ordered a number book sets for guided reading.
Guided reading is a way for me to provide targeted, differentiated instruction for my students. Each day, we meet in small groups of 3-6 children to discuss what we are reading, learn new skills, and practice together. These new sets will provoke academic discussion and get students hooked on new series and genres. The guided reading book sets will plant the seed for my students to become independent and critical readers.
