I am writing a lesson plan on comprehension for one of my other classes and I need to have them read a part of an informational book and see what they understand. I went to the East Lansing library to find a book to use. When I first walked in there were a ton of children reading books with parents, or playing on the computers. I was shocked but pleasantly surprised by this! I was searching for a informational book a 5th year old boy would like. I was struggling finding something at a 5th grade level. I asked one of the librarians and she showed me around the whole children's section. She was very helpful and there were a ton of books in the library for all ages. This made me think how great it would be to take my future students on a field trip to the local library. What a good way to get my students interested and excited about reading! What do you think?
