Every day we've been working on upping our "read to self" stamina. Before starting "read to self" we discussed the reasons for doing it: it's fun, you learn new things, and you become better writers and readers. It is our goal to get at least 30 minutes of "read to self" time every day. Then we set guidelines to follow, to help us make this reading time successful - sit in one spot, keep your eyes on your book, read the whole time, no talking, and get right to reading. During this time Ms. Angst is conferencing with students, meeting with small groups, or giving assessments. So far, we've done a great job!
