My Project

According to the National Council of Teachers of English, classroom libraries are critical to student development.

They list some of the benefits to students:

-motivate students by encouraging voluntary and recreational reading

-help young people develop an extensive array of literacy strategies and skills

-provide access to a wide range of reading materials that reflect abilities and interests

-enhance opportunities for both assigned and casual reading

-provide choice in self-selecting reading materials for self-engagement

-strengthen and encourage authentic literate exchanges among young people and adolescents

-provide access to digitized reading materials that may help to foster the development of technological literacy skills

-facilitate opportunities to validate and promote the acceptance and inclusion of diverse students’ identities and experiences

-create opportunities to cultivate an informed citizenry

I have added books to this project that represent a wide variety of genres and reflect a wide variety of readers. I hope by giving students these choices I can capitalize on all the benefits the NCTE lists.
