Classroom Library Organization Necessity

Help me give my students an organized set of books for the classroom so they know where to put their books back and where to go to find books they love!

My Project

How will they find the books they love? This is the 2nd time I've have had to restart my own classroom library. I have been buying lots of books for my 2nd graders and they are in love with all our new book. However, the early reader books are hard to keep in a book case because they are so thin and students have a hard time trying to find the books they need. Having a classroom set of book bins where students are easily able to see the front cover of the books, in an organized way, will help them find their love for reading.

Having these book bins will help students see what books are available and it will also help support their organizational skills by knowing where to look for the books they love!

We are in need of getting these bins to help support our love for reading, ease of browsing for new books and learning to put away the books so other students can find them in their rightful place!
