Editor's Notes
- Welcome. What makes my soul sing as a reader? Donalyn Miller. Pondering: What are 3 questions any reader should be able to answer? Set up questions
- LL Rs read on the edges
- So I’ve been asking Rs this question and I am taking action. Teach: strategies for self-selecting books, create a culture of book recommendations, embrace the technology
- Information Writers Get out your technology Start collecting goals—what kinds of goals do real readers make and work toward
- As I prepared for this workshop, I reached out… and I researched
- I apologize right now if I left out an author you love. My goal here is to introduce some silve to your gold
- Scientist and a poet—use book trailers: vimeo, author websites,
- I cannot say enough about how much I love Melissa Stewart—her beautiful writing and her capacious heart, her love of science and writing, teachers and kids
- Roget, Marianne Mann, Georgia O’Keefe, Abe Lincoln, Horace Pippin, William Carlos Williams
- Boy Who Loved Math Switch to fiction
- Again apologies…
- Colby Sharp “Can’t keep this book on the shelf” Add interview an author to ways to respond
- Lunch Lady series—if you have a graphic novel bias—please try again. There’s so much out there and Diary of a Wimpy Kid has created MILLIONS of readers.
- The 14th Goldfish: read the author’s note (kindle)
- Takes on tough topics in beautiful ways The Thing About Georgie, Umbrella Summer, Absolutely Almost
- When all kids want to read is… Hunger Games or Divergent or… Create read-alike baskets
- Again, sports writing may not be my personal cup of tea, but it’s not about my personal likes and dislikes, we need to be able to create preview stacks for our kids based on their interests
- Our job is, in part, to help kids find the right book and then teach them strategies to keep their reading life going. I used to be the kind of reader who kept a “Books I plan to read” list. Now I am the kind of reader who buys with 1-click
