Welcome to my AEA ACT EdChat. Today’s topic is adoption awareness. Although adoption has long been seen as a blessed event, there is new research, testimonials and data to indicate adoption is traumatic for children. Today’s discussion will be about the real effects of adoption in children. #myAEA

That's really neat! It might be a good idea to give students time to visit the library each week to check out books, if they don't have their own material. Library skills are a great thing to incorporate! #myAEA #ACT #edChat

No apologies necessary! Everyone enjoys different types of literature, different genres, etc. The important thing is that you find what you enjoy and read! #myAEA #ACT #edChat

Q5: What are the benefits of DEAR time? If your school participates in DEAR time, describe the impact it has had on reading scores. If it doesn’t participate in DEAR time, describe data you may have seen that shows the impact of DEAR time on reading scores. #myAEA #ACT #edChat

This is a great way to pique their interests and encourage reading! #myAEA #ACT #edChat

Q4: What do you think of educators giving students guidance about what to read during DEAR time? #myAEA #ACT #edChat
February 18, 2025 at 10:39 PM
Great response! That would be great, even if it were broken up into a couple of different DEAR times during the day. #myAEA #ACT #edChat
February 18, 2025 at 10:32 PM
Those are great suggestions, especially if your school doesn't give a specific time for students to read. Modeling reading for them in your own life, and giving them suggestions of books to read, are great ways to encourage reading! #myAEA #ACT #edChat
