I chose this topic because I believe that many of us don't know how to properly choose books for our students. Books need to be engaging, age appropriate, and help our students learn. My goals are to find strategies for picking the right literature for our classrooms and to give a better understanding as to what students are more interested in reading.

The purpose of knowing how to chose early elementary literature is so that parents and teachers can better engage their children. What literature is important to expose children to? What types of books should be displayed in the classroom? What do children actually like to read? These are all questions that are addressed through research articles, podcasts/videos, and technology. Teaching tips and strategies are also provided to give knowledge on how to better suit the literacy needs of the young readers.
