Finding the right book
This is what I look forward to most when I begin teaching. I absolutely love reading! I also love mid-level literature so I look forward to helping students find a book that they can relate too! I really like her suggestion of "read and tease!" Whether its an online book talk by the Great combo of Ben and Jeremiah or just a book introduction in my own classroom, I have to constantly be introducing books to my students. These have to be diverse in my opinion. Biographies, sports books, poetry, and adventure books can all relate to certain students. Also, give your students time in their school library where they can roam around and choose a book that they want on their own! Another way that you can do this is by literature circles. Give the students a choice of three books and have them get in their own literature circles and discuss on their own! All these are good ways of helping your students find the right book!
