I found a tweet last weekend on Twitter. Twitter is an amazing place for educators. You can follow authors, teachers, principals, reading experts and so many others who are just interested in education. I cannot find the tweet as I write tonight but the gist of the tweet was...nothing beats a book recommended by another student. I could not agree more. I can talk about amazing books, but if a student tells another student that a book is good that book will make its way around the classroom quicker than the common cold. This is why I love book talk day. The students are going to do all the work for me. They are going to share books they love and tomorrow when it is time to read they should all have books to read.
Here are some of the books that were shared today in class:
This is just a tiny example of all the amazing books that I got to hear about today.
I hope you are all having a great week. How about those Dayton Flyers!! 16-0 at home this year. The class knows I will be in a good mood tomorrow!!
