Description
What do middle school students prefer to read? Can we engage middle school readers in appropriately challenging books? During the implementation of a differentiated model of reading instruction, middle school students used a reading log to document reading habits with self-selected books and completed a reading preference inventory. This session presents what we have learned through two years of research about middle school students’ reading habits and preferences and how this can be applied to your talented middle school readers.
No items are available for this session.
