Welcome to the WDYRLN Blog

Do you love reading? Cullman City Schools is using our WDYRLN reading program to build a true joy of reading in our students through art, music, discussion, and reading, reading, reading! We have just ended our first year of this program and can't wait to see what the new year holds. Schools too often focus on teaching reading but lose sight of the need to create lifelong readers who read because they love it. This program wants to give them opportunities to not just learn to read but also to share the things they read that they love. Join us in our quest for happy, excited readers and share your ideas with us.

Article about Kathryn Tucker Windham

This morning I read an article in the Birmingham News by John Archibald about Kathryn Tucker Windham. KTW was our kick-off speaker when we first began our WDYRLN? reading program last school year. She is a genuine treasure. Archibald's article was very well written with a charming mix of Kathryn's stories and quotes from Judith Spivery, a local teacher. Take time to read this story, you'll love it.
