Help me give my students a voice in a vote for the outstanding children's book. After reading these books together, my students will vote with other students in our state for the best children's book.
I am blessed to work with over 900 students from PreK-5. Our students are eager learners, wanting to explore and discover their place in the world. Always looking for new texts, our students utilize the library in many ways, and now, they'll be accessing it through curbside pickup.
Connecting our readers with shared reading fosters a strong community.
Reading a variety of texts helps our students to see themselves in books, and helps others learn about them in a non-threatening way.
My Project
Each year, our students participate in an election to choose the best book in our state. Their votes are combined with other elementary students to select the award winner. Throughout the reading of the nominees, we discuss what makes a good book- learning that what's best for one person, might not be the best for all.
Using books as a platform for discussing critical thinking and making decisions of what's right for them, helps lay a foundation for later in life when they become voters.
Help my students learn how to make decisions, and use their voice to vote for our State's Best.
