I love the thought of encouraging children to read whenever they have a few spare minutes. You may not realize how much you read even when you only have a few minutes to spare. <br /><br /><a href="http://online-phd-uk.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">Barbara from Online PhD UK Programs</a> Barbara Oliverhttp://online-phd-uk.co.uk/phd-in-psychology/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473419838906624642.post-38766755285285273902012-06-27T12:35:27.036-07:002012-06-27T12:35:27.036-07:00I am an elementary school librarian.

I thought I might take pics of kids reading in unusual places and put up a list of suggestion. <br />I am going to recommend this book to the teachers at my school. Maybe try and do a book club.Bibliocathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02009664866212281983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473419838906624642.post-39474250253828140532011-05-10T14:56:39.253-07:002011-05-10T14:56:39.253-07:00Thanks, you are so right.

It's bringing me right back to the 20ish years ago when I started teaching. Can't believe how much time I spend on skills and not actually reading! UGH! Reading First and NCLB killed my schools goals for reading. Hope we get the love of it back. Thanks for sharing and I hope other teachers read it!The Kindergarten Expresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12219738846893971532noreply@blogger.com
