In this episode:

Listen in as I interview Stacey Riedmiller of Literacy for Big Kids. We talk about the what, the why and the how of reading what your students are reading.

We talk about:

1.What- What does it mean to read what your students are reading?

  1. Why- Why does reading what your students are reading important?

  2. How- How do we make reading what students are reading happen?

Quotables:

  • Reading what students are reading means that you read what they gravitate to during independent reading and what you are going to use to teach from whether that be in whole group or small group instruction.

-We read what our students are reading because it helps us build connections with students, showcases our professionalism, and deepens the conversations we can have with students.

  • We make reading what our students are reading happen when we remember our why and make time to read in the edges of our day.
