For the Love of Library

Help me give my students a wooden book display to peak interest in our library center. The books most chosen to read are the ones that are most visible!

My Project

Kindergarten is busy learning all about books, and planting the interest in reading. When students are done with their work, they read. When we do centers, many choose to read. As the year has gone by more and more things have been added to the library center to make it an inviting and inclusive space.

Having books on display sparks interest, exploration, and discovery.

Think about how you feel when you walk into a library or bookstore. You may know what you're looking for, but you can't help to gaze at the displays that have been curated to peak interest. Kids in my class immediately engage with the covers of books, using that as a deciding factor on whether or not they want to read. I would like to be able to have a classroom display shelf to foster this practice. By changing out books monthly, or in align with the curriculum, I can help guide students in exploration of books and topics.

This book shelf display will help make our classroom library and inviting place for students. It will help define space and will makes books more accessible for students. Hopefully it will even help foster new interests among our youngest learners.
