Setting up a Classroom Library



I think it is important for a teacher to have a variety of books in his/her classroom library because students need to be expose to all different kinds of books. The library should nonfiction, fiction, biographies, autobiographies,magazines, and poetry. It is important for students to be expose to all different kind of books because they will encounter different types of literature in their life time. A teacher should organize the classroom room library by section: Fiction, nonfiction, poetry. Within these sections the books should be organized by topics and all the books should be labeled what level the books. By organizing books students will have an easier time finding books on their level and their interest.

At IPS, my teacher has tons of books in the classroom library. The only problem with her classroom library is that is not organized at all. The students have trouble finding books that interest them because there is not an organization system in place. I think the students would enjoy the books even more if the books were organized in sections.
