Teaching Reading Engagement: Focus, Stamina, and Building a Reading Life
This page is dedicated to creating life-long voracious "WILD" readers. How do we get kids excited about books? How do we get kids to read even when we are not watching at home? How do we as teachers guarantee that ALL kids are readers ALL day at school and at home? Here's how! Let's play with teaching reading engagement in our classrooms...
This strategy is a tribute to Donalyn Miller and her WILD readers. We need to help kids see who is their own personal reading circle. It can't just be us because when we are gone who helps them find books? So, how do we broaden that circle? How do we teach kids to connect to other readers who can continue to share and talk about books? This strategy is the start of how to help kids discover just who is in their circle.
