Slicing has helped with the writing as well as my "organization kick" which I hope has a side benefit of "more time to read." Why require to read? I ask students to read every day. I ask teachers to share their reading life with me. Of course, I MUST model it myself!

So true! I ams sitting out on my back porch watching the sun set on my first "official" summer day (husband has to be at work to be official!) But you will have to rub this in when I am heading back the first week in August and you are still reading on your deck! Hang in there and enjoy your last weeks.Leigh Anne Eckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558611848583070310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-12207077411218933882014-05-27T00:25:45.770-04:002014-05-27T00:25:45.770-04:00Fascinating!

It's fun to see reading as a guilty pleasure rather than an obligation. Like Odysseus and his men, you can't resist the pull of the beautiful words that are on display. Neither can I!

And sometimes I check them out, then don't read. I hope I have more time when school ends! Your list looks good!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
