Let's talk about the focus groups and critical questions that are driving this transformation from a place where students "have to go" to a place where they "want to be." Josh also discusses the importance of literature and creativity in the library. Let's do this! www.coolcatteacher.com/e128 Today's sponsor, Owl Eyes. has hundreds of free ebooks -- the Canterbury Tales, The Odyssey, and all of Shakespeare’s work.
