Hello! I’m writing to ask for your help, and I promise it’ll take less than a minute of your time—well, this does depend how language obsessed you are, or how much of a judger or perceiver you are, he he.

The Title Survey: I am working with Jossey Bass to decide on a title for my book, which is about a fresh method for teaching whole class novels, which I’ve been calling Whole Novels. We’ve created a 2-question survey with some potential titles.

Survey link: HERE

I really appreciate your help!

 

To understand more about what the book is about, here are pieces articles I’ve written about it:

Reading fiction whole (Education Week)

My co-teachers weigh in on whole novels

A room full of thinkers

A novel community (CTQ video)

If you have comments or suggestions about the titles, feel free to leave them below.

Thank you!

–Ariel
