| Research shows when children have choice in what they read and how they respond to text, engagement increases and comprehension deepens. While many classrooms have an independent reading component, it is too often secondary to the overall curriculum. In this interactive workshop, teachers will learn practical strategies for setting up an ongoing, self-sustaining independent reading program which increases children’s excitement about reading while also addressing end-year expectations and standards. | |||||||||
