Professional Reading

[close] This group is primarily intended for active, reserve, retired or military veterans. This serves as a forum to discuss professional reading for military history, current affairs, etc. The U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force all have professional reading lists which are largely mandatory for active personnel based on rank/pay grade. This can provide a forum for professional discussion and mentorship. Veterans of foreign military are highly encouraged to join and offer insight and alternative perspectives. Not intended for military fiction, science fiction, military romance, etc.

[close] We are a group of educators (school leaders, teachers, and curriculum specialists) who work with students acquiring English as a language in addition to their first language. Monthly we read and discuss books related to schools, systems, and the impacts and implications for our practice. The special needs of ELs developing English as a language and accessing grade level content while they are learning English is the lens through which we focus our reading and work. Members may suggest books in the following categories: professional, classic, new release and nonfiction. Our goal is to read and discuss books related to the needs of ELs and improve our programs and practices to better serve our students. We hope to host visitors to our discussions for lively discussions!
