I see approximately 140 great students each day for reading class. These students come from different socioeconomic backgrounds in rural Illinois. In our district over 60% of students receive free or reduced priced lunch. My students are expected to read often while at school and at home. I want to put interesting books in their hands so they can get excited about reading.
Many of the novels I choose for instruction are books/genres students wouldn't pick up on their own. I try to introduce them to classics and new authors. However, the books students choose most often are new, popular titles that are often unavailable in our school library or in my classroom library. Due to limited funds, teachers do not receive assistance in purchasing novels for their classrooms. The only new books I am able to buy are purchased through book orders.
