My students are a diverse group from a small California town in the Central Valley where Agriculture prevails. I have a wide range of readers in my classes and I want to be able to provide them with a variety of reading options. Providing my English Language Arts 7th and 8th graders with books they can read in the classroom will expose them to many types of writing styles, many genres and I’m hoping seeing what good writing looks like in books will help them become good writers. I’d also like to start something called First Chapter Friday, where I chose a book from our library, and read the first chapter aloud to students to pique their interest in potentially picking out a book they never thought they’d pick out. I don’t believe there is a substitute for having an actual book in hand, so I’m hoping I can create this library for my students to enjoy for years to come!
