The DCG Booklist web site is a place for teachers to go when looking for books to use with different reading skills and strategies. The site was created and is maintained by your DCG elementary librarians, so if you'd like to make recommendations or need help nagivating the site, please just ask.
Looking for a book to match a specific CAFE reading strategy you are working on this week? Click here to see book lists for the various strategies. It is a good place to start when planning. Again, please let us librarians know if you have a suggestion of a title to add to the list!
Want to find a mentor text to use with your students or find a book that addresses a particular strategy? Try Reading Mentor Texts!
Looking for more ways to use Web 2.0 tools in your classroom? WebTools4U2Use is a wonderful, comprehensive wikispace devoted to just that.
