Distance learning has create many obstacles for teachers and interrupted many of those routines that we and students cling to on a day to day basis. There are many ways to find resources for FVR.
Free voluntary reading is such an exceptional way to build student vocabulary and help students fall in love with reading. I want students to still be able to have that piece of their routine from face to face learning. That’s why I want to share how to find resources for FVR.
Check out these free and paid resources for FVR to keep your students reading during distance learning.

There are so many grants available for building classroom libraries. All you have to do is search and apply. I started my library with a $500 grant from an organization in the school. Here are a few grants below.
