One of my most favorite books....

This is a link to a book I feel describes how a teacher must teach in any classroom. I read this book the year I taught 3rd grade and had to "test prep" my students for the "test" more than I was allowed to execute any genuine teaching.TeachLikeYourHairIsOnFire!

Introduction

My name is Sara McKinney. I am a second grade teacher. I have taught for 5 years and love my job. I am working toward my masters in reading/ license. I feel reading is the most powerful tool we can give to children. It makes or breaks their lives, and their ability to do it well shapes who they become. My school recently received a large amount of technology, and I have truly enjoyed learning about all I can do to make teaching reading not only fun, but more effective.
