Educational
1. Drive
2. Creating Innovators
Have you gotten on the Genius Hour bandwagon yet. These first two are books highly recommended by the creator of Genius Hour and I am really excited to read them. I have just read the first couple chapters of Drive and I really think it is going to change the way I look at incentives in my classroom.
3. Beyond the BakeSale: The Essential Guide to Family/School Partnerships
I will be reading this book in conjunction with a virtual summer book chat #PTcamp. Each week I will be blogging about a chapter along with participating in different online tools (Twitter, Voxer, ApprenNet) Lots more to come on this!
Just for Fun
1. Happy Happy Happy
Ok ok I know... my secret is out. I am a huge Duck Dynasty fan. I don't watch much TV at all but if I do turn on the TV I love to watch these guys. I love that they put family and faith above all and I could seriously laugh at their antics all day! Plus it is a show that my whole family enjoys and can watch together. My 14 year old son and I are having our own little book club with this one this summer!
2. 21 Days to a More Disciplined Life
Who couldn't use a little more discipline in their life. I am definitely lacking in a few areas so I am going to use this quick read to get myself back on track with a daily quite time and fitness plan.
3. Say Goodbye to Survival Mode
After going back to work last year with two little one's at home I realized that I can easily hit survival mode if I don't stay on top of things. I am looking forward to reading this to help edge that off once school starts again!
Ok there you have it. I will be sure and blog my thoughts on each of the educational books once I am done and will include my "just for fun" books in a summer wrap up post!
What's on your summer reading list?
