My Project
By having a classroom library, I will have books on hand that supplement and complement curricula and address the needs, interests, and concerns of my students. These selections are not available in the school library and all of these books represent a different section of the Law & Public Safety curriculum that is covered in class. This will help these students in their future career choices, further their understanding of Law and Public Safety, and add enrichment to their classroom learning experience.
Classroom libraries play a key role in providing access to books and promoting literacy; they have the potential to increase student motivation, engagement, and achievement and help students become critical thinkers, analytical readers, and informed citizens.
When students possess the skills necessary to access, select, use, and effectively evaluate their reading materials, their ability to become engaged members of their communities and productive citizens is enhanced. A large body of research demonstrates that equitable access to books promotes reading achievement and motivation. With books constantly in view, more students will be interested in reading, especially when it pertains to their future.
