When the students were given a quick poll on what genre they were having a hard time getting interested in, it turned out that biographies were getting overlooked! To remedy this I set the kids up with a biography book pass. In a book pass the students are given a few minutes with a small stack of books. Their objective is to skim through, find one from the bunch that looks interesting and record the title and author for later reading. When the timer goes off the books are passed to their neighbor. We did several rounds with a variety of biographies. Turns out there are some pretty intriguing biographies!
