I chose to create an Epic Library for this project. I think this will be something that will be very helpful to have as a resource in my future classroom. And starting to add books now will be beneficial in the next couple years when I start to teach, I will already have a head start on some great ideas for books to have in my classroom. I chose books that all had good lessons or that would be entertaining to my future students. In the future I also plan on building my library and creating different sections of genres and interests. But for now, I have provided a link to my google drive where I screen shotted the first few books I have added to my Epic Library. I chose Save Me a Seat because it shows two individuals who struggle to fit in from different reasons (one is an immigrant with culture shock and the other has auditory processing disorder). And over the course of 5 days, they become friends and get through their loneliness together. It is a great story to teach children how to be kind to one another because we are all different and how everyone can find a friend. Suee and the Shadow is an entertaining mystery novel that also shows students that everyone can be friends as the three main characters are Suee, who is a bit antisocial and likes being by herself, a popular boy, and a shy and bullied girl. I chose The Magic School Bus Lost in the Solar System because it is an entertaining and informative book for students to learn more about our solar system and has fun illustrations. I chose El Deafo because it was a great book we read as a class and it shows the struggles of a young girl who loses her hearing and goes through times of loneliness and feeling left out but she imagines herself as a superhero called El Deafo and realizes that her disability does not define her. I chose Ivy and Bean first, because it was a book I remember loving as a child and it shows an unlikely friendship between two girls and them growing up together, showing again, that anyone can be friends even the most unlikely pairs. And lastly, I put in my library The Boxcar Children #37 because it is a great mystery book that is entertaining and provides good lessons like working together and problem solving.
