Igniting a Passion for Reading

I just returned from the New York State Reading Association annual reading conference.  I am excited and invigorated to be the best teacher of literacy I can be.  I saw Ralph Fletcher, Dr. Donald Leu, Kelly Gallagher, Dr. Donna Scanlon, Dr. Timothy Rasinski, The 2 Sisters, lots of authors, and Steven Layne.  WOW! What an experience.  I will tell you all about it, but tonight I wanted to get started on creating a database of Book Chats, suggested by Steven Layne (he has a binder, but I of course had to go tech!).  I used google docs, and am posting the form here so my teacher friends can give me a hand.  I thought this might also be a useful tool if I become a Charlotte Award Committee Member.  Lets give it a whirl.
