District Wide Information

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.
