What to Read When: The Books and Stories to Read with Your Child--and All the Best Times to Read Them | Pam Allyn

Worst. Slump. Ever.
My reading challenge goal is so disappointed in me! 😭
Cant seem to get into hardly anything. Tried new genres, going to the library, Kindle books, audiobooks, book books. And I‘m starting to get twitchy. Grrrr. What should I read?

BookmarkTavern Go back to an old favorite! That usually works for me. 3d

Posh_Salad I‘ll give it another go @BookmarkTavern ! 1d

Morning After the Revolution: Dispatches from the Wrong Side of History | Nellie Bowles

It is unclear if Bowles is for or against these thoughts? She is not being very clear.
#NellieBowles #MorningAfterTheRevolution #Racism #WhiteSupremacy #literacy #reading #intellectual #urgency #inpatients #perfectionism

GingerAntics Being expected to show up to work on time is white supremacist? I need some clarification immediately. 3w

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie Stimming gets you fired all the time... mostly white autistic people... but it‘s racist to be against stimming? THIS DOESN‘T MAKE ANY SENSE!!! What is she saying? What is she talking about? 3w

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie now there are baby names that are white supremacist? I‘m either going to need her to get to the point, or I‘m going to have to choose between day drinking and DNFing this one. What is happening? BLM is fading? She is just all over the place. 3w

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics she‘s just mad I think. People aren‘t perfect, activist aren‘t perfect. A bunch of imperfect people must ban together, look in the mirror maybe instead of writing a book attacking everyone 🤷🏻‍♀️ (edited) 3w

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie yeah, this is very much angry rant. There isn‘t an argument to be seen anywhere. 3w

Nonfiction Matters: Reading, Writing, and Research in Grades 3-8 | Stephanie Harvey

Last year my goal was to read at least two nonfiction books each month. I almost managed it, with just two months being a book or two short. This year I'd like to try again and this #MonthlyNonfiction2025 challenge sounds perfect to keep me on track! I'm interested in paying more attention to which section each book falls into, even if I don't hit them all.
Thanks @julieclair for putting this together!

julieclair I‘m impressed with your record from last year! And so happy that this challenge will be useful to you this year. Glad to have you with us! 😃 4mo

As always, this is a make it a way that works for you challenge, a little revolt is good for the soul after all ⤵️

Riveted_Reader_Melissa ↪️ and we do not all need/want the same from our reading. So Bingo, Four Squares, Coverall…. Whatever works for you. And you can pick a book specifically about the topic, someone related to, or any lightly connected book you want. Examples Below ⤵️ (edited) 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Earth Day and Climate Change books are plentiful, you can also read about individuals in the movement from Greta Thunberg, to Al Gore, to Bill Nye, but you can also read about nature, the earth, etc. 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa March of the Mill Children was against Child Labor. Again, you can go straight to the topic, or a book that has children or about children, or a child‘s experience, or written by a child…there are some great books out there written by non-adults at the moment. 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa You can be as creative as you like, if the topics bore you or pulls you down, use your imagination….not up for the People‘s Revolution… maybe Prince and the Revolution are more your mood. Please have fun with it. (edited) 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa #Nonfiction2025Template 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa If you need suggestions or to brainstorm ideas, just ask… the idea is to encourage a bit of nonfiction reading this year that‘s it. 4mo

ncsufoxes I love these prompts. My reading fell off last year & I‘m hoping to get back into my usual groove. I‘m a big non fiction reader 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @ncsufoxes I hope it helps you and inspires you to pick up a few nonfiction this year. (edited) 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @ncsufoxes my reading fell off really bad last year too, so I‘m also hoping to get my groove back 4mo

Singout Yes, yes, yes! Thank you for doing this again amidst your busy life and thank you for these amazing prompts! 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Singout You‘re very welcome, now find good books! 4mo

Deblovestoread I need this motivation to get to the NF on my shelf! 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Deblovestoread I hope it helps! We all need motivation sometimes 4mo

Singout Not to be a nitpicker, but aren‘t the Singing Revolution and Baltic Way about the same thing? Unless there‘s another Singing Revolution than what comes up quickly in my search? 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Singout same movement, different styles & dates. I believe one was more like Hands Across America back in the day and one Singing specifically. So more options for odd connections too. So similar to both lunch counter sit-ins, bus boycotts, and marches in the Civil Rights movement. I thought they both provided great connections for other reading choices & connections. 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa ↪️ my examples are definitely a give away that I am an American, sorry about that 🫠 4mo

Singout You don't have to apologize for being American, we need as many Americans like you as we can get! *Looking nervously across Lake Ontario* 😬 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Singout 😂 I read my answer and thought, wow, that is a specific country history centric example list. 🫠 (edited) 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Singout there are a lot here, and we glance nervously around too. (edited) 4mo

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Lizpixie 4mo

Lizpixie Thank you! There‘s been a lot of revolution in my country too, especially around women‘s rights and Indigenous rights. Not to mention the rest of the world. America is definitely not the only country that‘s had idiots in power.✊ 4mo

MallenNC Thanks for doing this again! It will be interesting to see what I can match up with the prompts this time. Seems like a lot of options. 4mo

I realized I still needed to post my #Nonfiction2024 bingo card. Some of these are only lightly connected to the prompt but I did it! I always enjoy mixing nonfiction into my reading year.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Great job! And lightly connected is ok! 4mo

MallenNC @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Thanks! I always think I‘ll just do one bingo then I get ambitious. 😊 4mo
