I have been reading, highlighting, rereading, underlining and tabbing the book, Readicide. It is amazing how the author is able to clearly explain why students don't want to read anything. We, as teachers, have taken all the joy of reading away. My focus over the summer is finding engaging readings for U.S. History and allow students to read them without a twenty question study guide. I will provide a "big picture" question for discussion that will hopefully encourage the student to connect the past and present.
Do I have the will to pull it off?
