    a suggestion about classroom libraries. As a former elementary school librarian, us your school library to supplement your collection. Change out the books once a month. My teachers would select the books leave them stacked on the circulation desk with their name. We would check them out and deliver to the classroom. In addition, if there is a particular book you want frequently for a project or unit, photography the cover or title page, right the call number on the copy. File with your unit papers. As you are preparing to teach the unit, drop the copies off at the library. We would then collect the books, check them out and deliver to your classroom. I know not all states have good school libraries, but public libraries can be sources as well, procedures will then be different. Since I retired technology has change a lot, so just adapt for those changes.

      This is absolutely genius! For some reason I've never really thought of using our school library for books for our classroom. Definitely second this, see what your school district or school allows. Thank you for sharing this! <3
