I want students to want to read and try my hardest to have material that is very motivating.

It is important to have students' reading material differentiated to help set them up for success. It also provides a variety of reading material including trade vs. chapter, genres, fiction and nonfiction. https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377851948 2019-08-28 12:47:40 UTC https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377851948 If I were a classroom teacher, students would use the classroom library for independent reading. https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377852059 2019-08-28 12:47:54 UTC https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377852059 https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377852208 This was a cozy space used for reading, research, and for calming when one's behavior was not acceptable.]]> 2019-08-28 12:48:11 UTC https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377852208 often https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377852285 I provided books for students based upon an interest that I picked up on in casual conversation.]]> 2019-08-28 12:48:18 UTC https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377852285 I definitely have students show accountability for the books that they read so that I can get a feel for their level of success while reading.

By December, it looks like a storm blew through. How can I keep things running smoothly?
Have a plan for how kids will borrow and return books, and be ready for books to be taken home or to get lost or damaged. Try to be at peace with that, knowing it’s a sign that kids are reading. Consider assigning a student the job of classroom librarian, and make sure books are clearly labeled so it’s easy to refile them. You might give kids cardboard strips or paint stirrers with their names on them. When they take out a book, they put the marker in its place so they’ll know where the book goes later on.]]> 2019-08-28 13:12:12 UTC https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377862209 Common Sense 2005485 https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377863397 2019-08-28 13:15:29 UTC https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377863397 Organization 2005485 https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377864639 2019-08-28 13:18:45 UTC https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377864639 Book Basket Labels 2005485 https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377865355 2019-08-28 13:20:28 UTC https://padlet.com/2005485/dfekvjnfcsm3/wish/377865355 Yes!
