I really want a library in my class, and I was wondering which grant you went for to start your library.

They knew the picture books were on the top shelf and the chapter books on the lower shelf. The chapter books were pretty much sorted by level with harder (& bigger) on the left. This year I am planning to sort into various bins. The kids are pretty good at picking something around their level. Some will always choose easier, but as long as they are reading, they are growing.

I use it to scan all the barcodes and then can use it for students to check out and return my books. So far we have mostly used them in class, but next year I am thinking if having them free read a book over a quarter/semester and doing a mini book report on it.

As for looking up words I try to stress that they do not need to know every word to understand the book. I do have some students who look up words while reading, and if they are going to go out of their way to learn a new word I don't stop them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9883927338788093.post-15501504371251804662014-06-18T14:58:48.469-05:002014-06-18T14:58:48.469-05:00I am starting my first year of teaching in a rural...I am starting my first year of teaching in a rural school in Montana. I am going to be teaching 6-8th grades and all the high school levels as well, currently up to Spanish 3. I LOVE the idea of a library and have been fantasizing about my perfect classroom library for years (nerd I know). I love your post and your ideas! Your blog is EXTREMELY helpful for me! I have to create my own curriculum also! So on the look out for great ideas and helpful tips and tricks. I have a question on your free-time reading - if students don't know words do they use a dictionary or do you prefer them to get the main idea from context? How do you keep track of books you have and then books students borrow?

I think ESPN has a sports one in Spanish that *may* be available in the US, but besides People en Espanol, there isn't much choice. I look for comic books and kids magazines when I'm traveling. I tend to load up when I'm at the airport. <br />The only one that I know has an online edition (for ipad or e-readers) is Tú. It's 1.50 per magazine and is geared to teenage girls.SpanishPlanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10641491453271501737noreply@blogger.com
