Overview
- access: giving kids a wealth of reading materials and opportunities to discuss texts
- relevance: offering high interest, moderately challenging and authentic reading experiences
- choice: allowing students to self-select texts and reading activities
What exactly do those principles look like in action? Reading specialist and researcher Barbara Marinak shares the strategies and techniques that make a difference for student readers’ motivation, turning disengaged readers into passionate ones. “Pizza and Pez dispensers are short lived,” Linda and Barbara write, “but confident and empowered readers are likely to remain motivated for life.”
