Effective reading teachers are teachers who read. Celebrate how teachers make a difference when building effective reading communities that scaffold students' reading independence. Presenters participate in both online and offline reading communities that support them as readers and teachers, while providing authentic models that foster, enhance, and sustain successful classroom reading communities in their university, middle school, and elementary classrooms. Explore real-world reading communities and resources for launching effective reading communities in your classrooms, both online and off.
