Yep. My mother was a librarian and brought me to the library to read instead of childcare most afternoons after school when I was a young child. Had a direct impact on my profession, how I see the world, my ability to critically think, etc. I wouldn't be the same had she not been so passionate about books, I wanted to be just like her so I fell in love with them as well.

This has been 100% true in my own home. My wife is a freelancer, and whenever our daughter sees a laptop or keyboard, she has to "go to work" like Mommy. Same with other things. When I was laid up after surgery and binge watching a show, my daughter was very more temperamental about getting TV time too. When I turned the TV off more, she did more imaginative play, reading, puzzles, etc.

I agree! I also encourage my kid to start reading a book she likes and discuss it with me whenever she's finished. She would sometimes join me whenever she sees me reading. I am also amazed by her questions. Precious curious little pumpkin!

I joined pwc last month, and absolutely hating it here. Each weekend has been working, 12-15 hours work day is minimum expectation. And there's extreme hierarchy, where even after you spend 24 hours working on something, the director decides he wants something completely different and you delete and restart. (Note that you request them to review and give their pov earlier on, but they never take the time out)

I got an email last night from a 7th-grade parent because her son said I mentioned the words "male privilege" in class, and she is very concerned about how that is related to ELA (she said "reading"), and she is concerned about this being taught in public schools. To be clear, I didn't do a lesson on this subject but we did discuss rights versus privileges. I've had multiple parents contact the school/get upset with me because of things like his. It's exhausting... Thoughts?

How do you engage your students in more reading outside of what is required in the classroom? With each passing year I am finding an ever shrinking population of students, including honors students, who actually read beyond what is posted in social media or video games.

What are some strategies that you use beyond reading logs ?
