Mrs. Kewriga's Class Reacts to Booksource Gifting Their Wishlist

Our 2019 Classroom Libraries Giveaway asked educators to send in photos of their classroom libraries with descriptions covering how they choose to organize their titles. We garnered 280 total responses, but one in particular stood out.

Caitlyn Kewriga prompted her 5th grade class to write an entry with their eyes set on the ultimate prize: a customized classroom library filled with titles valued up to $500 + a barcode scanner for their Booksource Classroom account.

Highlights of their reply include:

“We are Mrs. Kewriga’s students, and in our library, books are tattered, destroyed, some are also folded over or words are ripped off pages. We would like some new books, so Mrs. Kewriga doesn't go out of her way to buy new books with her own hard earned money.”

“We also have a 1,000 book challenge where we are competing against the other three classes on our team, to see who can read 1,000 books first. Having new aesthetically pleasing books would help motivate us to win.”

“We use the Booksource app on Mrs. Kewriga’s iPad to sign our books in and out. We would be really grateful if we got the scanner.”

“Hopefully our classroom can be a better place for all of us. We will be very thankful, we will spend our time in the library wisely.”

While they weren’t selected to win our random drawing, they were runners up. So in addition to sending them a scanner, we decided to provide a nice surprise and reward her class for being so thoughtful and passionate about reading. We allowed each of her students to pick one book to put on a wish list and we’re gifting them the whole list. 🙌

Mrs. Kewriga and her class were so excited that they sent us this video reply!
