Do You Love to Read? We Sure Do!

Help me give my students access to diverse, quality literature in our classroom library.

My Project

My students are one-of-a-kind. They are bright, caring, courageous, and cautious. They love to explore, dig deep, and find information on their own about all sorts of topics. They can be caught completing work via Google Classroom about the Gold Rush or insects to prepare for a writing project about why we should save insects all around the world. They could be working on some grammar activities or giving a presentation about the Articles of the Confederation.

By giving my students access to quality literature, my students will be exposed to a variety of skill development opportunities with a variety of titles that they can see themselves reflected in, as well as their peers.

Not only will my students discover new-to-them books and concepts, they will also work on discussing characters, settings, and plots from each of the new titles. They will have the opportunity to compare and contrast across these areas of literature, which is one of the biggest standards we have in 5th Grade this year. They will also be able to connect to the storylines, as many of the characters in our books are 9 or 10 year old kids, just like my students.

My students love to read, and will push boundaries this year by going outside of their comfort zones with their reading choices. By providing access to these materials, my students will be gaining so many skills and exposure to literature that they may have never picked up on their own. A lot of these authors are incredibly inspirational, so I would love the opportunity to pass these titles along to my brilliant 5th graders.
