I am a firm believer that the only way to become a better reader is to READ... a lot! I will be following Donalyn Miller's (author of The Book Whisperer) approach to reading which is incredibly simple yet produces lifelong readers.
So this year in reading... you got it, we will be reading!
Students, get ready to increase your reading stamina.
We will be reading at least 30 books this year.
- affirm the reader in every student
- allow students to choose their own books
- carve out extra reading time
- model authentic reading behaviors
- discard timeworn reading assignments (i.e. book reports and comprehension worksheets)
- develop a classroom library filled with high-interest books

I became a certified eMints teacher in 2011 while teaching in Missouri.
The eMints program has recently branched out to Utah.
It is a proven professional development program designed to help teachers meaningfully integrate technology
and engage students through inquiry based or constructivist lesson design.
