Literacy Instruction in a 3rd grade classroom by Andrew Smith https://padlet.com/ams31219971/dh8t56w8yey6 based on teacher interviews en-us 2017-12-04 02:56:39 UTC 2024-10-26 14:30:43 UTC hello@padlet.com Classroom Library ams31219971 https://padlet.com/ams31219971/dh8t56w8yey6/wish/212695796 Doesn't organize the classroom library by levels, since she doesn't want to limit what the students can read. She wants them to choose books that they are interested in, rather than being tied to a level. She only uses leveled books for guided reading and they discuss how to know if a book is just right.
