Home school is one of many schools that is located in a low-income community. This is one of the main reasons there's low-funding in our school. Because of this low-funding, our classroom library is not equipped with the materials and resources for students to navigate through the selection of books. Currently, our classroom library is organized by genres, giving students limited knowledge of "just-right" books for them. This is why having a leveled book organizer is essential for students to not only focus on genres, but be self-aware of the books they can read! This is crucial for a classroom library to have and increases the students' ability to read fluently!
