I'm building classroom library for my students. Reluctant readers won't always go to the library (or sometimes have fines that prevent them from checking out). Having high-interest, diverse books in the "room where it happens", our ELA classroom, makes reading so much more approachable and likely. Independent, student-choice reading time happens several times a week in my class as a warm up or when daily work in finished. I will recruit students to do book talks on these carefully selected titles. I will be glad to lend these books to students to take home if they choose.
