Reading is Fundamental... Classroom Libraries

We talk a lot about getting kids inspired to read and having classroom libraries. But how do we catch their interest? How can we make sure every child has a book that is on their level and relevant to them? Below are some ways to set up libraries, level books, and advertise good reads to students.













Print Rich in Culinary Arts

Although one might think that a cooking class would be the last place to find a high quality, print rich environment, a trip to Ms. Laing's class proves that theory wrong. As the photos below show, she has taken her content and made it come alive on the walls, posted on the cabinets, and really made her kitchen a place to access culinary literacy. She is to be commended for creating such a  high quality environment for our students!
