One of the biggest challenges that teachers face in promoting a community of readers is making sure that there are enough great books for young people to read.
Teachers often spend the weekends driving to garage sales, rummaging through book collections, trying to find gems. Other teachers write grant proposals on DonorsChoose, hoping that their ask is funded.
This madness has to stop! Young people should have access to books they want to read, and teachers should be able to teach.
At the Kindle Classroom Project, books never go missing or get worn. When a student requests a new book to the library, he or she can share it with five friends. Also important, teachers don’t need to spend their time checking books in and out of their classroom library. Books are always safe.
