Book Speed-Dating
Did you know the library is now organized by genre? Circulation the second month of school doubled compared to last year!
I am happy to facilitate activities throughout the year aimed at engaging students in exploring the books available to them. We can do a similar activity as book speed-dating but on different topics instead of genres (athletes, best friends, who-dun-it, the book was better, etc.)
Setting (AND REACHING) Reading Goals
There are a number of reading challenges that can engage students in setting and meeting their own reading goals. Check out this collection of reading challenges or stop by and let's chat about how your students are setting and reaching their own goals.

Perhaps more important than teaching student to access information is teaching students to critically consume and use information. Check out this Collection of lesson ideas and resources for helping students become more aware of how they consume and use media.
Talk to me about collaborating on a lesson that focuses on critically reading informational texts through a media lens!
