Reading Reasons: Motivational Mini-Lessons for Middle and High School
Kelly Gallagher
‘Why should I read?’ Can your pupils answer that question? Do they have trouble seeing the importance of reading in their lives? Do they lack motivation in their reading? Can you effectively teach reading if pupils don't understand its benefits?
These mini-lessons are tailored to motivate middle and high-school pupils to read, and to help them understand the importance and relevance of reading in their lives. This book details nine specific ‘real-world’ reasons why students should be readers.
This book contains 40 practical, photocopiable, classroom-tested mini-lessons that get to the heart of reading motivation and that can be used in any class. These easy-to-use lessons act as weekly reading ‘boosters’ that help maintain reading enthusiasm in your classroom year round. The mini-lessons, ranging from 5 to 20 minutes in length will hit home with adolescents, and enable them to understand the importance reading will play in their lives.
