These books will help our students become avid readers. We want to create a class culture where independent reading is valued by encouraging students, even those who struggle with reading, to enter the reading life. Having a rich classroom library with books on a wide range of reading levels and diverse topics will promote this goal. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Third grade is a pivotal year for reading literacy because it is the final year children are learning to read, after which students are reading to learn. At this point in the school year, all students have tremendous room to grow across all academic areas. These books will give students opportunities to use their imagination, discover new interests, and gain more confidence. Please help us continue to build our classroom library and reach the interests of all readers. Help us to enhance the language-rich classroom that we strive to create!
