The Northwest Territories Literacy Council offers this reproducible guide to Get Caught Reading at home with these book ideas. https://www.nwtliteracy.ca/sites/default/files/resources/familybk.pdf Read, Write, Think offers these ideas for celebrating in your classroom: Plan an intergenerational reading day. Invite seniors to visit your school, or arrange a trip for your students to a local senior center. Have students select books to read to adults, and invite adults to share a favorite story with students. Extend an ongoing invitation to guest readers, perhaps on a monthly basis. Organize a book drive to collect new or nearly new books to supplement your classroom or school library, or to donate to families or a local children's hospital. Be sure to have a camera on hand to "catch your students reading" on film throughout the month. You can also have students organize a community "Get Caught Reading" campaign by taking photos of members of their families and community figures (firefighters, grocers, local police officers, etc.) caught reading, and creating a school display. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62865d363442bf7233475f26/1745957486511-V34IWD4H8DJYZCPO2KTJ/cat+in+the+hat.png MRA Coffee and Conversations - MRA Café-Coffee and Conversations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62865d363442bf7233475f26/1745957486062-KPTCDXOZ5IXKTNXDPAO6/hungry+caterpillar.jpeg MRA Coffee and Conversations - MRA Café-Coffee and Conversations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62865d363442bf7233475f26/1745957486855-EB363FNZ7782ZU9F6KGS/if+you+give+a+mouse+a+cookie.jpeg MRA Coffee and Conversations - MRA Café-Coffee and Conversations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62865d363442bf7233475f26/1745957487212-SISYWMJZP6E8O6SHZJHU/the+three+little+pigs.jpeg MRA Coffee and Conversations - MRA Café-Coffee and Conversations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62865d363442bf7233475f26/1745957487523-HO36SOVJS0AO1GVRQ9CX/owl+moon.jpeg MRA Coffee and Conversations - MRA Café-Coffee and Conversations https://www.massreading.org/mra-coffee-and-conversations/july-2024-sxzgd monthly 0.5 2025-04-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62865d363442bf7233475f26/1bc1c87d-8536-40c1-a424-7e00c03cac1f/Screenshot+2025-03-29+at+3.56.32%E2%80%AFPM.png MRA Coffee and Conversations - MRA Café-Coffee and Conversations - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62865d363442bf7233475f26/17adb4d0-a67a-4cb5-9d76-c5fb11afc6e9/MRA+Picture3.png MRA Coffee and Conversations - MRA Café-Coffee and Conversations - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62865d363442bf7233475f26/9b5d047a-610c-41dd-ba62-c1f166ff5f16/Screenshot+2025-03-31+at+9.48.37%E2%80%AFAM.png MRA Coffee and Conversations - MRA Café-Coffee and Conversations - Pattie Kelley, Poet, Leader, Educator Thank You, Pattie With wisdom and words, you’ve led the way, Guiding bright minds day by day.
