It is a well known secret amongst middle school teachers that our students love to have stories read to them. My goal is to read aloud one picture book a day to my students. The picture books I’m asking for my classroom will provide my students with opportunities to hear what good readers sound like, to practice core reading skills, and to promote social and emotional learning. I’m envisioning bringing the stories to life for my students and the rich literary discussions we will have as a class. My hope is for my students to love reading as much as I do.
