Welcome to Episode 13 of The Book Love Foundation Podcast! And thank you for joining us in this celebration of teaching and the joy of learning.
Episode 13 Show notes
This episode, the last of our first season, is a celebration of teachers who are changing the reading lives of teenagers one kid and one book at a time.
The 2016 grant winners join the Book Love Foundation family, which stretches across 24 states and 3 Canadian provinces. They teach in public and private schools. They teach honors students as well as students who have always struggled with reading.
Books matter. In every classroom, high interest books matter.
I am so excited for you to meet these teachers.
Thanks so much for joining us today.
Congratulations to the 2016 Book Love Foundation Full-Library Grant Recipients:

The Teacher Learning Sessions is offering a free summer study session around the Book Love Foundation Podcast.
This free study session will run for 4 weeks, starting on July 18. Each week will focus on a different episode of the show, and teachers who join will receive show transcripts and other resources, pre- and post- listening thinking points and conversation starters, and have access to a private Facebook group as well as teacher reflections as people share their thinking.
We think it will be a great free summer resource for teachers to learn together from each other, build their on-line network, and gather and share resources. (Did I mention the free part?)

It has been a pleasure bringing you Season 1 of The Book Love Foundation Podcast.
Thank you very much for listening.
The post And the winners are… Ep 13 of the Book Love Foundation Podcast appeared first on Teacher Learning Sessions.
★ Support this podcast ★Celebrate teachers and a joy of reading with The Book Love Foundation Podcast. Hosts Penny Kittle and Julia Torres and their guests help teachers develop a love of reading in their students. It is a show filled with information, inspiration, and book love.
The show focuses on the value of reading in a student s life when that child has access to books and skilled teachers who are committed to rich and rewarding reading lives for their students.
The show helps teachers learn to foster a love of reading by using book choice and independent reading to help a student s reading increase in volume, engagement, and complexity.
Teachers will learn from Penny Kittle, Julia Torres, past Book Love Foundation Award recipients, and Book Love Foundation friends like Donalyn Miller, Teri Lesesne, Kylene Beers, Tom Newkirk, and Kelly Gallagher and others as they share thinking and strategies around book love that they use in their own teaching.
Conversations cover classroom topics like book choice, independent reading, access to books, conferring, teacher collaboration, classroom libraries, reading workshop, that help teachers put reading at the center of their teaching.
The Book Love Foundation has one goal: to put books into the classrooms of teachers of teenagers. The Teacher Learning Sessions is honored to work on with Penny Kittle and Julia Torres to help the foundation meet that goal.
