Chapter 17 - Motivating Kids to Read

Finding children's interests is crucial to motivating them to read. I can fully relate to disliking reading, for the first time ever, in middle school when I had to read something I didn't care about. I had to memorized things and actually pay attention to minute details that I didn't care about. I don't want to do that to my students, ever. I know assessment and teaching classics is important, but I would want to do it in an interesting way.
