Thank you, Courtney. This chat really helped focus my thinking & I'm going to steal some great ideas! #katyisdela

A7-Reluctant readers deserve to know the power of reading. It's an equity issue! #katyisdela

A6-Silly but I also try to get HS teachers to participate in a reading focused on visible bulletin board. Kind of fun. #katyisdela

Currently reading & last 5 books is a great idea (stole from Diana a couple of yrs ago). I want others to see me as a reader! #katyisdela

A5-Ask students to share why they chose/liked/disliked books in order to get to know them as readers. Book speed dating is fun! #katyisdela

A4-People of any age like to talk about what they're reading. You get to be the "expert" on your book=confidence builder. #katyisdela

A3- So instead of asking some kids how they're doing, I ask what they're reading=good conversations. #katyisdela

I wonder if lack of interest is also Ss thinking that no one is interested in them as readers. #katyisdela

Great news! Big change in my life b/c sometimes you need a new adventure even if it's a little scary! Such a blessing. #teacherbeteacher

Feeling good about tomorrow's adventure and new opportunity. "If God is for us, who can be against us?" Roman's 8:31 #teacherbeteacher

Finished painting the sunroom today! So much for lazy lake days. Still, it feels oh-so-good to get it done! #teacherbeteacher

Listening-a gift few people give. But when we listen we gift the talker & usually gain connection in return. Double gift. #teacherbeteacher

Inspired by Hattie training today then tutored seniors tonight & read/discussed The Canterbury Tales with them. Good day! #teacherbeteacher

Late but who's keeping time? Starbucks Red-a fixture-said that I would not melt if caught in the rain. Sounds so wise. #teacherbeteacher

Hope. That's the ticket to not only facing but embracing the tomorrow ahead. #teacherbeteacher
