My students need all the encouragement they can get in terms of reading. They get so excited when I show them my book finds from Goodwill or Half Price Books. I love to pick up the books they love like "Diary of a Wimpy Kid". However, I also teach them that these are not the only books they should read.
I purposely sought out "Bud, Not Buddy" because I feel it's important for my predominantly African-American students to read about African-American characters. That is extremely important to me as one of their role models.
We will use "Bud, Not Buddy" as a read-aloud and each student will have a book. It is important for students to read to themselves but also to hear their teacher read aloud to them.
A classroom library is extremely important for student literacy and I thank anyone that is willing to donate to this cause.
