The Classroom Library : A Catalyst for Literacy Instruction, Hardback Book

The Classroom Library : A Catalyst for Literacy Instruction Hardback

Edited by Susan Catapano, Candace M. Thompson

Part of the Kids Like Us series

Hardback

Description

The Classroom Library: A Catalyst for Literacy Instruction serves two purposes by first providing classroom teachers with a how-to guide in setting up and using the classroom library to support literacy.

Next, it provides teachers with excerpts and stories of practicing teachers who have successfully used their classroom library to teach literacy.

A wide array of photos, documents, tips, ideas, and descriptions lead teachers to create a classroom library that will scaffold students in the classroom library to establish and extend their literacy development.

Several chapters specifically focus on working with under-served students, including students in urban settings, those who are learning English as a second language, and students without access to other libraries.

Content in this book is easy to use to help teachers establish a library oasis in their classroom to support learners in preschool through grade eight classrooms.

This book is a companion book to More Mirrors in the Classroom:Using Urban Children’s Literature to Increase Literacy.

Both volumes cover the selection of culturally responsive children’s literature.
