The Enjoyment of Reading and Reading Achievement
I close this year of blog posts with more regarding reading and reading achievement. Kylene Beers blog post article titled What the Research Says About the Enjoyment of Reading and Reading Achievement supports the Summer Reading Check-out Program the media centers are trying this week for students across the district. If you have any questions about this, feel free to contact me. I will be looking at feedback and data from the reading logs that will be sent home when students check out books. In this article Kylene has the following books as "must reads" for teaching professionals:
Book Love by Penny Kittle
Making the Match by Teri Lesesne
Book Whisperer by Donalyn Miller (we have copies of this in our media centers)
You Gotta Be the Book by Jeff Wilhelm
Enjoy the summer! We have an exciting school year in 2014-2015 with the first year of the 1:1 Digital Learning Plan coming to fruition.

District Wide Information
Social Etiquette Online
Twitter has become an outstanding professional resource for me. In following several tech education leaders, I found the following article last Thursday: A Great Social Etiquette Lesson From Jimmy Fallon. Be sure to watch the video. Consider sharing this as a talking point regarding the ease taken in posting rude and inappropriate things to people online, but when given the opportunity to say the same face-to-face people are socially appropriate. Below are the ISTE for students standards to support how we need to include these in our teaching daily.
5. Digital citizenship
Students understand human, cultural, and societal
issues related to technology and practice legal and
ethical behavior.
a. Advocate and practice safe, legal, and
responsible use of information and technology
b. Exhibit a positive attitude toward using
technology that supports collaboration,
learning, and productivity
c. Demonstrate personal responsibility for
lifelong learning
d. Exhibit leadership for digital citizenship
