Children learn to become better readers by practicing reading. We practice reading daily during our literacy block. In reader's workshop, our students engage in various activities that strengthen our reading. One very important part of reader's workshop is our guided reading. During guided reading, the students work with us in small groups so that we can identify strengths and weaknesses within their reading in order to make them better readers. Students are more likely to be engaged in their texts if they are enjoying what they are reading! This is where our project comes into play. Our students need more varied types of guided reading books to supplement our small group instruction. If they are more engaged readers, they are more likely to become better and stronger readers.
