Drop Everything And Read – A Literal Approach




DEAR was put on hiatus during one of our lessons this week to make more time for our presentations. So Friday’s DEAR time was a double block. I knew some students might be restless if I didn’t sell it correctly.

First, I asked everyone in the class to pick up either a textbook, pencil, or notebook.

“Now drop it,” I said quietly.

THUMP!

“Read.”

It was probably the best DEAR time so far this year.
