"The Role of a School Library in a School's Reading Program" by ELIZABETH “BETTY” MARCOUX AND DAVID V. LOERTSCHER

  1. Discussion groups are my #1 challenge right now.  When?  Academic classes, theater and arts, sports, and homework fill these kids' lives seemingly to the brim.  Must be such a fun thing that it's considered recreation?
  2. Multi-media access to reading material!
  3. p. 10 - "Every classroom is a print-rich environment."  Class sets of textbooks are a disaster.  Would other classroom collections be more stationary?  Think UFS.
  4. p. 11 - "Time to Read"  strategies:  everyone reads (students, faculty staff); time to read is scheduled during the school day; material is available for both required and recreational reading for every reading level present; and reading aloud is part of the daily program.
  5. p. 11 - Out with the reading contests--reading is its own reward.
