Another great way to educate students in today's classroom is by encouraging students to become life-long readers. As a teacher, it is extremely important to model what a life-long reader looks like and be transparent about how important reading is to each student's academic success. Below is a picture of a classroom library that has been updated with recent novels and titles that may interest students. This was done in an effort to show students that reading can be for both pleasure and academic success.
The students are in charge of cataloging the books that are in the classroom library, as well as, managing an Excel spreadsheet as students check books out.
