I want my scholars to fall in love with reading. Second grade is a critical time to capture the love of reading. It’s so important to me that my scholars find something they are interested in while in my class. If I can instill the love of reading in them it will forever change my particular scholars. For the most part my scholars have rough home lives. If I can get them to fall in love with reading, they will have a better chance of being successful in their academic careers as well as wanting to stay in school. I understand they can always go to the library, however, because of the pandemic my class only gets to go to the library once a week and get 1-2 books. Plus, a lot of things are digital these days. I feel that there is no replacing the feeling of holding a book, seeing the pictures up close, and physically turning the page adds to the satisfaction of getting to the end. It creates a bond between the book and the reader. Books online are a great tool, but they can’t replace a good ole fashioned book. I call my scholars Bookworms when it comes to independent reading. They love it. I reward them with praise and a gummy worm from my “Bookworm” jar when they read, take an AR test, and pass! A bookworm for my Bookworms. I want more books to expand and create a class library for my Bookworms. I need books to support social, emotional, and well-being of kids. I have scholars that have been virtual and have had a lot of isolation in the past due to the pandemic.
