This is a day treasured by these 17 and 18 year old kids. They snuggle into a bean bag chair or one of my leather seats (also Donorschoose funded!), open their books, and read for fifty minutes. The room is SILENT except for the sound of pages turning and the air conditioner whirring. For those fifty minutes every week, my students are in another world, lost in the conflict the protagonist is facing, considering how they might see themselves on the very pages they are reading. In all reality, some of these students are reluctant readers. But given the right title, much like Remarkably Bright Creatures, my scholars can't wait for Friday reading time. \r\n\r\nFor that gift, I am eternally grateful.
