As a first year ELA teacher, creating an inclusive classroom library is of utmost importance to me. My students come from various backgrounds and I want them all to feel represented in my classroom both as individuals and in the resources I have available to them. Independent reading is encouraged daily in my school, with students reading twice a day in homeroom. They also rely on these books for company on their commutes to our school, which are usually lengthy as our school is not a zoned one. I want my library to be a place they look forward to exploring, and that makes them excited to read a new book.
