We Can't Lose Those Middle and High School Readers!
Middle and high school teachers know what a fight it is to lure reluctant readers (who once loved reading as children) back into the fold. When I spoke at a school outside Atlanta last month, I met two wonderful teachers who are spreading book love in their school - with phenomenal results in their test scores and library circulation. I encouraged them to write about what they're doing to inspire other teachers to try their methods. Here's the link to the details of their highly successful program. Please pass it on to teacher friends. Thanks, Dennis and Justin, for sharing. And thanks Nerdy Book Club for hosting the article and serving as a wonderful resource for educators at all levels!
