I'd like to create a reading workshop with my students next year. To do that, I'll need a diverse classroom library. Diverse not only its authors and main characters, but in genre and reading levels. It's my goal to take my students who tell me they "hate reading" and turn them into obsessive readers.
Students love stories (ask them about their most recent trip to the movies or Netflix binge and you'll see what I mean). However, they haven't had the opportunity or become accustomed to stretching their imagination by engaging with stories through books.
