Yeah! It's here! Share a Story-Shape a Future 2010 has started. We selected the theme It Takes a Village to Raise a Reader because learning to read is an immersive process ... everyone in a child's life plays a role, either formally or informally. One of our goals with this year's event is to share ideas about all of the ways we can create readers and, by extension, celebrate the efforts that each of us dedicate to the children in our lives.
With today's theme, The Many Faces of Reading, Terry will takes us on a guided tour around the proverbial "village." She's hosting at Scrub-a-Dub-Tub (Reading Tub blog) and we'll share stories with and from people in our communities who dedicate themselves to promoting reading.
- Lee Wind starts us off with Dads! He shares the 3 Secrets of Reading with Your Daughter.If you've got the worry ... Lee's got the answer.
- Greg Pincus
- Melissa Taylor offers a win-win-win with parent-child book clubs at Imagination Soup. Don't tell anyone, but this is the best book club you'll ever join. From Melissa: "PS, Oprah, I've got one on ya. You forgot the kids."
- Terry thought Just One More Book had something on this topic, but Andrea Ross says it was probably her article The Family that Reads Together ... What's In It for Me? She wrote this as a guest blogger for the Children's Book Review. Here's a link to the podcast version of The Family that Reads Together.
- Sarah Mulhern will talk about the teacher-student relationship at The Reading Zone.
- The Book Whisperer (aka Donalyn Miller) is going to talk about teaching ethics, responsibility, and the difference between "teaching books" v. teaching to read.
- Terry Doherty shares her experience as a reading tutor at Scrub-a-Dub-Tub.
