For the Love of Books

Season #2

🎙️ Season 2 Episode 4 - For the Love of Books! 

 

In today’s episode, we discuss the philosophy of “windows, mirrors, and sliding glass doors” when it comes to fostering a love of reading in our classrooms through designated SSR and choice reads.

Before this episode, we pulled 5 books from our bookshelf at random. We have no idea what the other chose; we simply let destiny run the conversation today, as our own libraries represent who we are, and the philosophy of “windows, mirrors, and sliding glass doors.”
