A casual reader myself, my fiance (a much more avid reader) was browsing the shelves at our local comic book store. He found an interesting title and searched online for me to see if the content would be appropriate for my students. Your blog was the first result. I cannot stop reading your posts, and I have already purchased one recommendation online tonight (The Unsinkable Walker Bean). Thank you for this post. I feel the same way about promoting literacy in my classroom through reading what interests my students. I will be sharing your blog with my school librarian and other teachers at my school. Thank you!!!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00126631920129568473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3085111738542750467.post-8948142636978110502011-08-02T15:34:29.145-06:002011-08-02T15:34:29.145-06:00AWESOME, CHRIS.

This is the stuff that isn't ever recorded in our observations and reviews, but it is what we do day in and day out during school and outside of the classroom. I was going to say that this kind of relationship building doesn't get measured on a standardized test, but the results of students' learning does depend on it to a degree most people don't realize. Important stuff to share! Thanks.Maureenhttp://www.graphicnovelsandhighschoolenglish.comnoreply@blogger.com
