Education:How To
Did you know that in Iceland they have a special holiday tradition called "Book Flood" on Christmas eve? People gift each other books, then relax and read them while drinking hot cocoa or eating holiday chocolate.
Isn't that just the best idea? I love it.
This year I want to suggest you help your students have a book flood of their own, by making sure they have a great book (or two) to take home over winter break from your school or classroom library.
And that means making a special effort to help your students find something they will actually want to read!
What better way than a book tasting? Don't worry, I know you have a million things to do right now, so I'm going to share the quick step-by-step in this podcast and provide you with all the free curriculum to make it super easy.
