Hi! >From Margie Waterbrook on the Middletalk listserv.:
>I've just read the first article in NCTE's Journal of Adolescent and >Adult Literacy and, in it, the author writes of how his 7th grade English >teacher--the author Will Hobbs--turned him into a reader...basically by >making most classes time to read self-selected books, have brief class >booktalks, and individual conferences with the teacher once done with a >book. The author now has a site of his own that I thought some of you >might like to check and post for your students who never know what to >read--or who just need more suggestions. It's at www.lazyreaders.com and >has categories for adult, young adult, and children's books, none over >250 pages long. There are some other neat features too. I think this >would be a great site to make available to students...or to turn to when >you're coming up short on suggestions. See what you think.
