[CASL-L] Read Across America--MS/HS

[Jessica-Lynn Johnson]

Hi Casey,

I've tried a few different things at the high school level. I'm attaching
all my documents for your reference. Feel free to make copies from the
public view links and let me know if you'd like more details or anything
else shared. I have Google Forms for classes to sign up for a "Mystery
Reader" and for members of our faculty and staff (administration, security
monitors, athletic director, football coach,etc) to sign-up to talk about a
favorite book to a class.  I ask all members of our staff to be involved,
but the kids get a kick out of non-English teachers sharing their favorite
books. Additionally, we have small groups of students that travel to our
elementary schools to read to classes.  They select a book that connects to
their own identity and experiences, so they can help lead a discussion.

Good luck.  It's not a hit with every student, but it is a lot of fun,
Jessica
