I have found that the "Sharing to Grow" concept is always a lot harder to sell to colleagues than expected.Teaching is after all an essentially individual activity-it is about you and 30 children, isn't it? As we all know, it is and it isn't. As an individual activity, it is eAsy to rely on habit, recycling activities that we feel work in the clAssroom. However, with educational technology developing at high speed, the life-cycle of clAssroom activities seems to be getting shorter and shorter, with more and more needed to get that "wow factor" out of clAsses. This is when...

As part of a language arts or reading program, students read novels throughout the school year. Some of the novels are Assigned, read, and discussed "all clAss." Others are chosen by the students individually, and they keep individual reading lists. Students may be required to read a certain number per marking period, per school year, and over the summer. Some may be clAssics; other trade novels, but all contribute to the overall reading and comprehension abilities of the students. This unit can be done As a culminating activity for the school year. Students are Asked to choose their two favorite novels from the ones they have read. They write reviews and post them online for students in their own school, in other schools, across the United States, and in other countries to read. The student reviews not only help student readers clarify their own understanding of literature, they also provide a "student-to-student" resource. Other students can choose novels bAsed on opinions of their peers. The students review the novels, write descriptions that will appeal to other readers, and indicate the level of reading difficulty. They do this to help others choose novels suitable for their reading levels.

In most if not all 1:1 student laptop initiatives, "instant messaging" is a hot topic for both students and teachers. Typically and predictably, students want access to instant messaging, while many teachers and administrators see IM as a distraction comparable to video games. Both IM and video games are often regarded as "problems" for the classroom teaching and learning environment, rather than powerful tools that can be leveraged for transformative educational experiences.

"I have always believed that reading has a significant impact on our understanding and appreciation of the world. as both a life-long passionate reader and an experienced English Language Arts teacher, I have witnessed first-hand the impact that reading has on the ability of learners in terms of comprehension, grammar, empathy, confidence, vocabulary and expression. This has however, only ever been phenomenological through informal observations in the classroom, and in an effort to incorporate sustained silent reading (SSR) as a regular, valid and essential practice, I have embarked upon this research in order to determine the impacts that daily reading has on middle-school learners, not only in terms of English Language Arts, but also across the curriculum."
