It was quite good but I think I just kept going back to fiction instead. It has some great ideas and I know she's write about how much reading students need to do and how important choice is but it's still hard to slow down in the classroom enough to really support kids' reading and hold them accountable while still making it pleasurable. Still, there are ideas that I want to incorporate next year. This is honestly one of the best books I've ever read about reading in the classroom. It was exactly the motivation I needed to jump start a reading challenge in my classroom. In this book, Penny Kittle discusses not only how to incorporate reading time into the classroom, but also how to plan reading conferences with students, how to reflect on the reading process, and how to motivate students to become life-long readers. I highly recommend this to teachers of reading in middle and high school. no reviews | add a review
