👋 Hey everyone! We’ve added quite a few new members in the last week. Welcome @14274493 @christine-eichenauer-4420 @jaylynnda-girardot-5443 @chris-logan-6396 @shelby-evans-8176 Our community supports literacy for children. Please share a read-aloud that is your go-to for reluctant readers. Mine is in the comments.

I have 8 books in my TBR pile for professional learning and I keep jumping between four of them that I'm reading at the same time. 😆 Newest book is The Secrets of Scaling by Benjamin Hardy-for my business prof development, The Magic (from The Secret series) for personal development, The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson (business again), and How To Utilize Your Mind Through The Science of Practical Psychology by Elsie L Benedict-personal development. Grateful for Kindle Unlimited when reading for pleasure. Loving books by Sarah Alderson right now. I think they are considered Psychological Thrillers. Anyone else reading four or more books at a time? Just me?

I just stumbled across this resource I made for my students years ago. I think I've changed how I explain it to kids a bit but the process is basically the same. A lot of students just don't know where to start when they're faced with a long and intimidating word. I hope you find this helpful! Let me know if there's anything that can be clarified.
