@rueber98 Good catch!

[Jody Freel @JLFreel]

@rueber98 I have not heard of Passion Time. Is it the same as Genius Hour?

[Jody Freel @JLFreel]

As far as reading interests, I have book buddies (groups of 3-4) and they meet weekly, sharing what they are reading and helping each other find books of interest. I eavesdrop.;-P #sepolk #DisruptingThinking

A2- Some of my students who are not reading at grade level, listen online while following along. Quick checks for understding. I also will read with a small group so that I can model fluent reading for them, and be there to support their reading. #sepolk #DisruptingThinking

Q1 - Increased reading stamina, discussions, quick writes.

@Steenhoek3 That sounds interesting! I love our Capitol building!

A6: I will begin by posting an anchor chart and modeling in ALL classes.#sepolk#DisruptingThinking

[Jody Freel @JLFreel]

@Steenhoek3 Yes, during read a loud the class is so engaged that I have had boys sobbing. As I reflect on this, I think it is because that is how I have approached it...read aloud was for the heart and our academic reading was for the book and head. I need to change that.

@rueber98 A4: Strategically placing those students into productive groups gives others a peer role model.

[Jody Freel @JLFreel]

A3: I liked the second grade response, "all smooshed together", because it is hard to think of one without using the others.#sepolk#DisruptingThinking

A2 Heart - It made me think of how easily I become enslaved by daily busyness, and if I don't take the time to listen, I will be lost.

[Jody Freel @JLFreel]

@rueber98 I think we sometimes sell nonfiction short and do just the "book" reading. #sepolk#DisruptingThinking

[Jody Freel @JLFreel]

I am reading The Story of Arthur Truluv.

A1 I agree with Kim, Ready Gen series offers a great balance. Prior to this series, I was definitely weak in the area of nonfiction.

Me, too! I hope I have this figured out!

I'm pretty sure Penn State won the popular vote and Iowa won the electoral vote in the first half.
