My precious second graders come from a beautiful variety of cultural backgrounds representing over 20 countries around the world. They are an academically diverse class in a Title I school just outside of Washington, DC. Many of our families, however, live in poverty. They are hard pressed to afford the plethora of books that research deems necessary for building vocabulary and concept understandings. Many parents work multiple jobs and are learning English as a second language themselves. This makes it difficult to support reading at home without books from school. Many students need familiar and repeated readings to overcome the language and literacy challenges they face each day. Through rich conversations around books and through reading a variety of texts at their independent and instructional levels, students are developing oral language skills and learning self-determination as they enthusiastically share their books and new learning with their families at home.
