I just finished Don't Teach the Canaries Not to Sing...loved it as it affirmed everything I believe in terms of culture driving learning. Just started, and almost finished...Less is More: Teaching Literature with Short Texts...also a keeper as it makes introducing rigor and relevance possible even for those student who don't have the reading stamina to tackle full length novels. For fun, I hope Santa brings the newest Patterson! Take good care and enjoy a restful break, Chris
