My son is in 8th grade and his 6th and 7th grade teachers did NOT do a status of the class each day and he never read ANYTHING. But now that his 8th grade teacher does it, he reads each day. So awesome! Inpsiring!<br><br><br><br><div>

BUT we still want to hold kids accountable and continue to build on a culture of reading. I am in a 5-8 building. What does your school look like? What do you do with your ELA teachers to encourage students to read? What grades are given for reading and how is it accessed? </div><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="m_-8115058386803315157gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000" face="comic sans ms, sans-serif" size="4">Deanne Guccione, Librarian</font><div><font color="#000000" face="comic sans ms, sans-serif" size="4">Pleasant Plains Middle School </font></div><div><font color="#000000" face="comic sans ms, sans-serif" size="4"><a href="mailto:dguccione@ppcusd8.org" target="_blank">dguccione@ppcusd8.org</a></font></div><div><br></div><div>"Winning is not always about shining the brightest.
