Naša trieda číta (This classroom is full of readers) is a programme which enables teachers to start a tiny (20 books) starter classroom library with very low introductory costs. Rather than offering identical book packs based on the presupposed reading levels and reading topics, each teacher is guided via simple prompts to choose from curatory book selection according to the actual reading levels in his/her class and actual preferences of kids.

Through this guidance teachers quickly grasp the concept of reading age and are able to understand the reading needs better, even if these concepts are rather new to them.

Since the beginning in 2020 more than 1000 teachers of Slovak elementary schools have joined. This programme has been created in partnership with the largest Slovak bookstore chain which bears half of the financial costs per classroom library.
