Help me give my students the books they have requested. My students have taken a person interest in creating a classroom library full of books that they are looking forward to reading.

My Students
My students have embraced the idea of using their individual talents/skills to show mastery of the subject matter. Each student works at a pace that suits their learning style, and collaboration is always encouraged. The kids relish opportunities for hands-on, and project-based, learning.
My students enjoy choice, competition, and creativity.
Their eyes instantly light up when given an opportunity to have a say in the learning process. This rings true when it comes to reading. Students have a broad range of interests, and the goal is always for kids to develop a love of reading. My students choose which books they want to read in book clubs, as well as independent reading.
My Project
My students read each and every day. Once students finish reading a book, if they like it, the students will give a book talk to the classroom. This way, other students gain awareness of the variety of good books available to them to read. The class also participates in two book clubs during the year, so the book talks help groups decide on the perfect book to select for their book club.
My students master the reading standards by reading novels.
Each students, or book club, completes tasks as they read a book. These tasks are designed to help students comprehend basic story elements and additional reading standards. The teacher provides lessons and additional information to assist students as they go. In this way, learning becomes more satisfying for each students because they are mastering standards while enjoying a book of their own choice. The students have spoken, and this is what they want!
