From the desk of Laura Kelly…
This past summer, fifteen librarians and educators from around the state participated in a book study facilitated by Alissa Adams, School Library Technology Coordinator at the SD State Library.
The book? Passionate Readers: The Art of Reaching Engaging Every Child by Pernille Ripp.
Read more about my experience taking the course at Alissa's blog http://schoollibrarysdsl.blogspot.com/.
Alissa and I are partnering to run this book study once again in 2021. Note: This course is not limited to school librarians.
"Creating learning communities where students are passionate about reading requires many things- a great classroom library, time to read, choice, and also the courage to break some of the rules that surround traditional reading instruction."
