Curling up With a Good Book

You may not know this but we are now reading 1/2 hour every day. 1/2 hour!!!! If you could be a fly on my classroom wall this is what you would see; students sprawled out, laying on pillows, curled up in a corner, feet up on the chairs and every single one of them reading. There isn't a sound in my classroom. Did you know they could do that? If they can do that with 25 other people in the class, could you imagine how easy it would be to spend some time at night, curled up on a couch/bed/pillow, to read your favourite book? I don't know about you but I am completely jealous of my students. I think tomorrow I might pretend to be one..just for a 1/2 hour.
