It’s so important to have a variety of books in your classroom library. In my library, I have a wide range of topics, genres and chapter books for all levels of readers. When we are in the middle of a unit, I love to pull as many books as I can that tie in with what we are studying. March is usually when we study light. These picture books on light are perfect for early learners!
