Even though this wasn't meant for me, I'm still going to chime in. As I remember the cards, they were mostly expository text. Of course, I'm 57 and that was many years ago. At that age I didn't read The Holocaust or To Kill a Mockingbird. I was still reading on my own and mostly in my room with a flashlight. My mom left at 4 AM to go to work, so she was in bed early. As long as she didn't wake up and look up stairs, I was safe.

I can see how those SRAs could be motivating to some as they would have been to me wanting to show how "smart" I was but did any of the passages really move you and stay with you affecting your lives like To Kill a Mocking Bird or The Holocaust or many others? For those disengaged readers and many others it's going to take more than an SRa card. Barb

I also loved the SRA cards. Each color I moved up gave me a great sense of accomplishment. The freedom of moving at my own pace was wonderful.
