Why Is Literacy So Important?
Lucy Calkins gives a general overview of the importance of investing in literacy, but doing it the “right way.” Providing readers choices to find books at their “just right level” and instructing at an appropriate level is paramount to building a solid reading foundation.
Watch a portion of the short video from Calkins…..
Why the Reader’s Workshop?

Individual Classroom Libraries
Teachers in grades k-4 have a decent start on their classroom libraries. However, they need enhancement. With a bigger push on non-fiction text and a desire to keep up with newer trends in reading interest levels, each classroom teacher needs to beef up their libraries. In 2014/15 the Common Core Standards are being adopted in at least 38 states, including Michigan. We want to make sure our literacy resources are sufficient to keep up with the increased rigor that these standards demand.

What does a typical classroom library look like?

What does it cost to get a typical classroom library up and running?
Truth be told, our teachers invest thousands of dollars of their own money over time to build comprehensive libraries. Therefore, it is hard to put a cost on a library. We aim to help teachers enhance (at the K-4 level) and build (at the 5-8 level) their libraries….
Grades k-4 Classroom Level Libraries, 64 Teachers @$300 each = $19,200
Grades 5-8 Classroom Level Libraries, 33 Teachers @ $600 each = $19,800
Special Education Staff Classroom Level Libraries, 15 Teachers @ $300 each = $4500

Research Is Clear As Lucy Calkins pointed out earlier in this
presentation, the research is clear that there is no “teacher proof” way to teach reading. As a result, we need to continue to equip our teachers with the tools they need to be successful literacy teachers. In this case, those tools are books and lots of them.
As a nation, we can and should do better than a 17th place finish on the PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) scores in reading. Thank you for your support to help with this process……….
