My classroom is a third grade language arts room and I have two classes (approximately 40) students each day. Many of my students are avid readers and will read an entire chapter book or more a night if they can get their hands on them! My leveled library, unfortunately, is quite limited, and there are not enough books to keep the students' interest. We only have one basket (approximately 25) level O (approx. 3.8 grade level) books that many students have to share My students need books that are interesting to them that they have not read! I have chosen 45 books to add to my classroom library that appeal to their interest and are developmentally appropriate for my students. Your support can help ensure that my students continue to love reading and that they have the resources to do so. hide» My students need interesting books on beginning fourth grade level, from "The Boxcar Children" to "The Chameleon Wore Chartreuse". details»
