Abstract
To be a responsive language arts teacher is to continuously assess the availability and variety of choice books in the classroom to support literacy development. When our students are able to read and explore topics of their own interests, educators not only foster a safe environment for students to learn about challenging topics, but also a space where educators are able to learn from their students' interests to bring into their education. This project's purpose is to identify and put into practice how language arts educators can bring students' interests into the classroom to support development in core content alongside socio-emotional skills.
