A critical role all teachers should play for their students is one of a book guide. Students desperately need adults in their life who will talk about, promote, and encourage them to further develop their reading skills.  – Yes, I am aware that I said ALL teachers. I don’t care if you teach math or music, you can still talk about books! This week, the week before spring break is a critical time for book guides. Before you send your students  on a week long retreat from all sound educational reasoning, take a minute and encourage them to make a plan to squeeze some time in for reading over spring break.
