Getting free books for your classroom library!

Something that I have done several times is get free books for my classroom. I have changed grade levels numerous times and have always needed to adjust my classroom library. I have always gone to Half Price Books because they usually give two boxes of books to teachers. I haven't bought books since I have started teaching since finding out about this program. If you are a new teacher or a seasoned teacher, this is great way to build your library with no cost to you. If there is not a Half Price Books where you live, find any other second hand bookstores or bookstores that give away free books to teachers. This will save you so much time and money! Also, retiring teachers are a great resource too!
