=MURRAY LANGUAGE ACADEMY BOOK SELECTION COMMITTEE=


==This is a workspace where each grade representative can share their grade's literature selection ideas with colleagues. Colleagues can respond to each other outside of our more limited face to face meetings. We can become aware of each others' thinking and make comments and suggestions as we move the planning process forward. ==


==Please use the Book List Template to create your lists for each grade level. The rubric and individual title selection forms will be used to review choices and may be used as a guidelines for the books you choose. ==

Murray Language Academy Sample Purpose Statement for Book Selection Committee The Approved Anchor and Supplemental Literature List indicates the literature titles that are approved for instructional use at each grade level. With the approved anchor and supplemental lists comes a set of expectations for students. These expectations are as follows:
 * 1)   Students reading at M and above will be expected to read no fewer than x number of age appropriate full-length works of literature per year.
 * 2)   x number of the titles must be read with accompanying instruction (i.e., through whole group instruction, guided reading or through literature circles).
 * 3)   The remaining titles may be assigned as independent reading (and students may select titles for their independent reading that do not necessarily appear on the approved Anchor and supplemental list).
