Have you read A Mind at a Time by Mel Levine?  This is another book that made me think differently.

develop longer attention spans for group work and read alouds? I feel
confident that the books I'm choosing have meaty and interesting content
for the students, but I still feel the attention of some is so short! I
know Ellin Keene talked in MOT about engaging the students - and the
fact that they need to be aware of the NEED to be engaged. Maybe that's
the problem - they don't know they even need to be engaged?
