If they have to fill out a worksheet for everything they read, they will spend more time answering meaningless questions rather than reading and digesting the book they have. ]]> 2018-01-30 02:50:10 UTC https://padlet.com/eocker/3aj22vj8j310/wish/225921896 eocker https://padlet.com/eocker/3aj22vj8j310/wish/225921925 Engage in conversation. Talk with your students about what they are reading, but in a way where they can get involved and relate it to their lives so they develop meaning from it. Students will get more out of reading if they engage in conversation, rather than getting lectured at.

Invest in getting bean bags or having a corner devoted to the reading nook. Create a safe place where students feel comfortable and even getting excited to read. We want our students to get excited about reading, and see reading for what it is for us as adults, something we enjoy because of the emotions we get out of it. ]]> 2018-01-30 02:50:31 UTC https://padlet.com/eocker/3aj22vj8j310/wish/225921955
