Classroom Wish List Building Classroom Libraries with Scholastic Book Fairs

Most educators agree that a rich, supportive literacy environment is critical to a student’s reading success. The Classroom Wish List activity enables families to help teachers build classroom libraries and connect kids with books they want to read.

The Classroom Wish List can be used to:

• Support a literacy environment that is critical to a student’s success
• Reinforce independent reading by making books accessible to students in classrooms
• Provide the entire school community an opportunity to participate in building classroom libraries
• Provide parents a way to demonstrate the importance of caring for others

Did you know that according to the International Reading Association, each child should be able to select a new book for every day of the school year? The Classroom Wish List activity enables families to help teachers build classroom libraries

It’s fun, easy, and rewarding, and it’s your chance to grant wishes for both students and teachers. For information on how to host a Classroom Wish List program at your school please contact us.
