Children want to see themselves in the books they read. Yet, too often, the books they're told to read are outdated and have characters they can't relate to. By working with English teachers and our diversity clubs, I have complied a list of high quality books that feature diverse characters and are relevant to students today!
With these new books, my students and I are so excited to work with teachers to create book clubs in their classes. Students will be able to choose which book they want to read and will be leaders in discussions. Choice in reading is one of the best ways to interest and engage students to read more! While reading, children will increase their literacy skills and also learn about the experiences of diverse individuals. We will also have the opportunity to share with other class about our reading experiences and create dialogue in our school community.
