Kathy Collins is becoming a new favorite in my teaching toolbox. Her book, Reading for Real, talks about motivating students to read by putting them in book clubs based on interests. We all know that learning is not a chore if we are interested in what we are learning about so check out this guide and source for how to run those book clubs in primary grades. Students really can be in a book club, even in first grade! This is a valuable resource for primary and will give intermediate teachers some great ideas to expand upon!
