#educate
Thank you Heather Nally for your determination to share your passion for reading with students. I appreciate your willingness to provide student access to several of your personal books.
Reading Challenge
I have been asking students if they read the prior night each morning. This week I challenge each of you to ask 2 students a day to “Tell you about what they have read?”
If every staff member did this each week, we could potentially be encouraging everyone of our students to read each week.
