Books for our classroom library will allow for individual students to practice reading at their current reading level. As a teacher still building my classroom library, it would greatly benefit my students, especially those who are not currently reading on grade level, to have books suited for their learning needs.
In addition, a Scholastic News subscription for each student will provide engaging reading material about real life events. Students enjoy reading these articles about current events, and while doing so they practice grade level academic vocabulary and reading comprehension. They will also discuss these real- world issues, allowing for critical thinking and sharing of opinions!
Lastly, supplies such as an extra wide pocket chart, markers, tape, and post- its are all part of the G.L.A.D (Guided Language Acquisition Design) model, which is an excellent structure for teaching language acquisition. It involves students practicing using academic language in groups, receiving instruction close up to the teacher through teacher- made posters, and using motions and chants to learn language and information. These miscellaneous supplies enable the teaching and student participation in groups.
