Many of the English teachers have attended lit lab and are implementing in-classroom libraries. We were taught to motivate , provide access to books, and allow in-class reading time. It would be helpful to receive donations of any teen, young-adult or classic books to add to the classroom libraries. Donated books should be given to the student's English teacher (if that teacher has an in-classroom library) or to a teacher who has a library already in use. Thanks!
