Our classroom library and it's resources (books and bins) have seen quite a bit of love over the years! Not only would new book bins bring a new light to our very overused bins, but would also attract the attention of everyone in the classroom. You would be surprised how organized and clean 8 year olds can be when they feel a sense of responsibility over things! It is a goal of mine this year to provide more time for quality read alouds with my students where they can simply sit and listen to a book being read to them. While it does not seem like much, the conversations that can be started with students before, during and after "fun" unstructured read alouds can be just as effective as a guided reading lesson. I am very confident that my students will take an interest in and be excited about all of the books I selected, maybe not more excited than I will be, but they'll take a close second.
