Here are the responses I received:
We incorporated D.E.A.R. on weekly basis for K-12.
For 20-30 minutes each Wednesday the students know to
bring reading material. The elementary
has an assigned time but the hs rotates the hour so
one class doesn't lose time each week. At first we
let them pretty much read anything. Now we are trying
to get the students to read only books. The staff and
administrators are expected to participate also.
We implemented this as part of our NCA strategy and
the staff agrees that it is beneficial. I would love
to hear about the other ideas you get.
