Share a Story 2012: All the Posts
Our theme for Share a Story - Shape a Future 2012 is the Culture of Literacy. For four days, we explored all of the facets of what that means ...
- We shared our experiences as parents and educators for creating an environment that encourages and promotes reading
- We had recommendations on creating a reading culture at home or school
- We explained why reading widely is important and gave us some book suggestions, too
- We stopped and looked at ourselves as "everyday readers" and set aside stereotypes
