Recommendations for classroom materials came from:

• English Language Learners Day by Day K-6 by Christina M. Celic,“Establishing the Classroom Library” p. 4-24 - LB 1528 .C45 2009
• An individual working in an ELL classroom
• Education Department faculty

Celic (p. 15-18) recommended word walls, math charts, wipe off math charts, and math manipulatives.  There are lots of math manipulatives in the kit area.  Use the MU Library Catalog to find the call numbers & give the numbers to the Information Desk to retrieve the items for you.

Celic (p. 22-23) recommends word walls, pictures, realia, textbooks, trade books, and kids' magazines.

Study Pictures - cataloged sets of pictures you can browse or look for them in the online catalog.

Trade books are part of the juvenile collection - search for them in the online catalog.

The K-12 textbook collection is located on the right side of 1st floor north.  Social studies books are in the D-J section and Science in the Q's.
