  1. Great post, Elyse! I also do Daily 5 in my classroom and a home-school reading program, so I love to get sneak peaks at how other teachers set it up!

  3. This was an awesome post, Elyse! Those clothespins on the baskets and Velcro on the flap of the envelopes is GENIUS! I also do a home reading program and have always used bags, but I am pretty sure I will switch to envelopes now! Thanks for the tips!

  9. Great post, I love your sit spots too! I love the idea of clipping their name on the basket that has their leveled books. I may consider organizing my classroom library this way since we are moving to lexiles. I also did the take home books like you did when we used the Rigby system and had Rigby books for that purpose. I'm at a new school now so I don't do it anymore. Glad you're having so much success with it, looks fantastic!
