How attendees describe this talk

I would describe this session by saying this is another tool to help our students read and be accountable for their reading. This would be a tool to be able to send to the parents to be able to use at home with their children.

Desiree is always great. I wish she had a double session time so the pacing could be a little slower. A slide deck of the tips would be wonderful too
