My fifth graders are eager and enthusiastic! My teaching partner and I spent hours over the summer talking about how to create a sense of belonging and community for our students. We wanted to create a feeling of consistency and make sure our students knew that reading was valued and expected in all content areas. We have plans to instruct and assess reading (and writing!) in all classes. Moreover, we want all of our students to have access to books they can select for pleasure reading. We have agreed that nightly reading is an expectation and have committed to help our kids find books at their independent reading level that they really want to read. I am famous for spending my summers and weekends scouring yard sales and second hand stores for reading material I can add to my classroom library. Donors Choose makes it possible for me to continue to build a library for my kids without breaking the bank.
