This article is about the way the digital age is changing the way students are able to read: "We should be simultaneously reading to children from books, giving them print, helping them learn this slower mode, and at the same time steadily increasing their immersion into the technological, digital age.

This was amazing. He was so right about missing so much because as head is down. It is wonderful to take time to smell the roses, look at the sky at night and see the sunset, or the stars.

Click on Graham Bell from Police Ten 7 and listen to him read some of the Wonky Donkey;-- very funny -- click into the segment to 35:25. It sounds like he's looking for a suspect.

I wasn't sure how to describe or tag this site so copied and pasted a description of it . "Brain Pickings is a human-powered discovery engine for interestingness, a subjective lens on what matters in the world and why, bringing you things you didn't know you were interested in - until you are."

Do any Primary School Librarians on this course have any of these Mortal Instruments books please? I had a boy tell me last week at school that they had watched a DVD of one of these. Are they suitable for Primary Schools?
