article on sustained silent reading

A couple of weeks ago I was interviewed by a writer from EdSurge, an online education journal.  We discussed SSR - sustained silent reading, a practice that I used for 38 years in my high school English classroom.  Even though I am retired from teaching, I still believe that SSR is the most important thing I did with my students to help them learn to enjoy reading and become better, more self-motivated readers.  The article​ was published in EdSurge on October 7.
