Update on the library

I've made a change in reading progress chart.

I used to replace this chart at the end of each term, but I realized recently that many of my students don't turn in their reading until the end of the term. In order to show recognition to those students and hopefully to inspire them to read more, I've decided to leave the chart up for the whole year. I've also started to highlight the lines to better show each students progress. Student progress is now much more visible than it was before. I'm particularly proud of one third grade student who read more during first term than any NELP student has ever read for me before. She read three level 4 books. I should also stress that her language improvement this year has been amazing, reinforcing my belief that one of the most influential keys to language development is reading.

In a final note on the library, we got some new books:

I haven't counted them, but we have a lot of really good new books.
