Oct.- Share Your Reading Life

Honestly, sharing my reading life is slightly difficult. I have not always loved reading. When I was in school I was never excited to visit the library and only picked books based on their pictures. When it was time to read and essential to read I did not know how and I surely didn't  find it fun. When I began college I knew if I was going to be a teacher, and I was going to have to begin to love reading. It was not until my senior year I realized I was going to make my negative experience a learning experience for my students. No, I don't start off the year telling students why I love to read and or the books I am currently reading, as the article suggests. I began my telling my students my story but more importantly everything I missed out on! Then I began to share my personal library and how I record interesting things I find!! Most importantly how much I now LOVE to read! :) This was a great article to help motivate all readers.
