The common denominator is that they know what the reading zone feels like, and they want to be there. No matter who our students are, our job is to invite them to enter this happy state of engagement time and again."" -Nancie Atwell "Reading in the Middle," thirty years in the making, is a chance to observe Nancie Atwell in action as she helps students become skilled, engaged, discerning readers.
