Passionate Readers

More about the book

How do we inspire students to love reading and discovery? Classroom teacher, author, and speaker Pernille Ripp reveals the five keys to creating a passionate reading environment. You'll learn how to: use your own reading identity to create powerful reading experiences for all students; empower your students and their reading experience by focusing on your physical classroom environment; create and maintain an enticing, well-organized, easy-to-use classroom library; build a learning community filled with choice and student ownership; and guide students to further develop their own reading identity to cement them as life-long, invested readers. Throughout the book, Pernille opens up about her own trials and errors as a teacher and what she's learned along the way. She also shares a wide variety of practical tools that you can use in your own classroom, including a reader profile sheet, conferring sheet, classroom library letter to parents, and much more.
