Every April is an exciting time for my 1st graders! We get to celebrate them as readers! We have a Book Club celebration. In the years past, students had to read 100 books outside of school and record it on reading logs. This year, we asked students to read 200 books! We know that the more books students read, the better their chances of being on grade level with reading ability. However, this can be stressful for students who do not have one single book at home. We are unable to send home books with them that were purchased by the school. Students check out 1 library book per week. This is simply not enough material to take home and read. I want to provide students with books that they can take home and enjoy, and then bring back to school and select a different book. I will have a check-in and check-out system, insuring that students return the books prior to taking home any more.
