Tagging/Indexing/Cataloging - Competency #5


While using LibraryThing.com, I searched tags for reading, motivating reading, reluctant readers, young readers, and many more. I found the book, Puzzle Them First: Motivating Adolescent Readers With Question-Finding. This book suggests that in order to motivate young people to read, you should challenge them with questions. It offers strategies and lesson plans (that not only teachers can use) of how to help adolescents find the multiple meanings of text. This book's theories could be a great resource of ways to motivate young people and reach out to some of your most reluctant readers.
