Upshot: Audio paired with read-along of plain text helps. Audio with multimedia (images, video, interactive text) often leads to overstimilation. So get those audio books to pair w/ popular print books & curricular titles! #TLSky #EduSky #SchoolLibrarians #TLSkyChat

A quote that reads: "I had Mr. Montera for 7th grade world history, and he turned every lesson into a great story. I still remember taking more than 10 pages of notes each class during his retelling of the Iliad—it was better than Homer could have told it! 

He inspired me to spend a decade as a history teacher myself."
