[aisle] What Grades Go Into the Stacks?

[Robin Jacob]

I have both K and 1st choosing from the shelves. The first couple weeks I have Kindergarten choose from a selection on their tables, but this group in particular had really specific wants, so I let them go. They’ve done really well. I have used shelf markers in the past, but stopped using them with COVID and I don’t see any significant difference so I’m thinking I won’t go back to using them.

In the past my classes have been 45 minutes for K-5, but with COVID they were reduced to 30 minutes. This has made a large, negative impact. It’s hard to do much in such a short time.

I know we've all discussed this in the past, but I honestly don't remember what anyone else is doing?

Do you have K & 1 going into the stacks to choose their library book?
Or do you put select books on a table for them to choose from?
If going into the stacks, do they use shelf markers?
How many books are in your collection or section that they are choosing from?

In your opinion, what do you think is best for K & 1?

Thank you in advance!
