"You read it, so what?" 

"If the reader isn't responsive, if she doesn't let the text awaken emotion or inspire thoughts, then she can barely be said to be reading at all."]]> 2019-04-23 20:32:06 UTC https://padlet.com/dmeyer7/xi61b97lr3bs/wish/353537954 dmeyer7 https://padlet.com/dmeyer7/xi61b97lr3bs/wish/353538757 2019-04-23 20:35:19 UTC https://padlet.com/dmeyer7/xi61b97lr3bs/wish/353538757 dmeyer7 https://padlet.com/dmeyer7/xi61b97lr3bs/wish/353559776 Quote from the book....
"We need students who can do more than answer questions; todays complex world requires that our next generation of leaders be able to raise questions".

Our students deserve this!

Does that matter?"

If we can make this happen in our readers, we are succeeding as reading teachers. :)]]> 2019-04-23 22:47:44 UTC https://padlet.com/dmeyer7/xi61b97lr3bs/wish/353561045 dmeyer7 https://padlet.com/dmeyer7/xi61b97lr3bs/wish/353561854 2019-04-23 22:54:20 UTC https://padlet.com/dmeyer7/xi61b97lr3bs/wish/353561854
