I am wanting to implement more book club type lessons in my classroom. Several students reading related texts will conference and discuss common themes and ideas from the books they are reading. I am also building in time each day for sustained silent reading to improve students' access to quality literary texts.
By providing them with current and high interest book selections, I am hoping to spur a movement of reading is both learning and entertaining. My goal is to get students selecting their own books to read and continuing on the practice of sustained silent reading into their lives outside of school as well.
I want them to reimagine what reading is and in turn, reimagine the world around them.
