Like Olympic athletes have a passion for their sport, I feel the same about reading. Sometimes I wish I could be more focused! Especially an issue when I'm tired! #read4fun
A1: I think about if I donât use it I lose it. I know that when I havenât had the chance to pleasure read in awhile I am rusty... so making sure Iâm always practicing my sport! #read4fun
A1: Total PASSION for what they do! I love the places that stories take us, and hope that our students will love reading and realize its importance! #read4fun
A1: Like an athlete I'm part of a team...I've got a team of people to read with and talk with. Reading can be so solitary and I'm glad I've got teammates to share with! đ #Read4Fun
A1: MAny athletes have coaches giving them tips and sills to practice. My PLN is my coach guiding my reading and helping me to sharpen the necessary skills through reading. #Read4Fun
Good one! I always think that I might give up too early and miss a good story! Kind of like getting up from the slot machine and the next person hits the jackpot! #Read4Fun
A1: You canât do the same workout all the time. It only strengthens one set of muscles. Challenging yourself to read out of your comfort zone, with books of high volume or challenging complexity â all readers need to do this! #read4fun

A2: Today I finished The Wild Robot by @itspeterbrown. I'm inspired by Roz's kindness and ability to care for others. She's more human than some humans I know! ; ) #Read4Fun
This is why literature circles work so well. Itâs what real readers do AND it makes readers accountable to each other as much as they are to the teacher. #read4fun
Iâm more inspired by nonfiction than by fiction. @BreneBrown is an author whose works have changed me as a person. But, gotta admit that Howard Roark and Dominique Francone from The Fountainhead inspireD me not to put up with pretense or BS! #Read4Fun
I love audiobooks! But some books donât audiobook well. The real treat is sitting down to read. Iâve been carrying this with me from room to room in my house today and still havenât read today! #read4fun
A3: There are so many! Long Way Down would get a gold for speaking to the head and heart of so many children who have lost so many in their lives. #read4fun
A3 So many, but first I would go with #tlap because it really pushed my thinking and got me to start doing more, being creative, involving Ss more #read4fun
A3: I would award The Rainbow Fish with a gold medal beacuse not only is it engaging to many ages, but it teaches kids about embracing their differences. #read4fun
I find it odd how some books just don't record well. I attribute it to the voice. It is a struggle to listen and I often ask myself is the book the same or is it just the voice? #read4fun Go sit after this and read! That's my plan.
A3 Also loved #launchbook#empowerbook because of ideas, how it helped me to learn more about creating more student led experiences, start authentic #pbl and inquiry based learning, give Ss more opps to lead #read4fun
A2 I can't ever pick just one, really like @BreneBrown Daring Greatly, helped me to better understand why we need to be vulnerable and what growth comes from it #read4fun

A3: Mem Fox read "Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes" to teachers @ the Wisconsin State Reading Association conference last year. Thousands of educators choral read with her. I now read this with my teacher candidates. In a world of division, commonality is needed #read4fun
