I believe…
· Students should be reading self-selected books which causes more motivation to read.
· Vocabulary instruction should be done through reading instead of directly.
· Modeling my own reading to students so they see that I value what I expect them to do.
· Scaffolding is one of the best ways to teach children. Children learn best by watching, being
guided, and then working independently.
· Students should have experience with different types of genres, authors, and books in order to
develop broad interests.
· Getting to know students is extremely important in order to help them develop interests.
· The best way to become a better reader and writer is by reading and writing.
· Literacy should be used in all subjects.
· Students should be surrounded by books, given choice, opportunity, and high goals to reach.
