    Thank you so much for this; it is so helpful! I’m tutoring a girl right now who hates reading but is incredibly extrinsically motivated. My goal has been to find her books she’ll like to read so the motivation will turn to intrinsic and she’ll actually enjoy reading. It’s been hard to find videos on helping older kids read and I’m so glad I got this one recommended.

    I'm a highschooler who's supposed to be coaching middle schoolers right now and i am terrified i have no idea what to do thank you so much for this😭

      haha! It CAN BE terrifying! Yes, I absolutely believe letting students choose their own books is so important. Since this video, I've created book clubs for my class with 6 books that are on various levels of difficulty. The students choose their club, which still gives them choice, but I'm also able to assess a little easier. But we still do their own choices for independent reading:) The most important thing is to instill the love of reading.

    Thank you so much!! I was told I was teaching a reading class with very little information. This helps so much!

    Thank you so much for sharing this. I’m going to be tutoring jr high students in reading and I’ve never done this before but I’m so excited. I’m a lifelong reader and I’m hoping to make a difference for these kids.

      Oh that's exciting!! You WILL make a difference:) It's important for students to experience the benefit of LOVING reading a really good book and not always being told what to read. If you learn any good tips, let me know!

      Hello! Yes! It's pretty simple, and has become more so as we go. I will write this down to put together another video on this:) Thanks for watching!

    It would be fun to incorporate this idea in our homeschool!

      Yes! I think this is such a perfect way to "teach" reading.

    Hi! Love this! So simple and focuses on READING! Your award for most pages read each month, does that start over again at the beginning of the new month so all kids get a new chance, or do your previous pages still get counted?

    • @LoveThemWell
      @LoveThemWell  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi! It starts over each month. But at the end of the year I will have an overall winner.

    I see so many flaws with this system: my kids cheat a lot. And just copy notes from the screen when I ask them to summarize the texts. Ugh… this wouldn’t work for me.
