My small group of third graders are more than a year behind in their reading skills and reading is viewed as a chore rather than a joy to them. Imagine not loving to read! I can't! My project is to work with them this year and impact their attitude toward reading so that they become "reading fools" that can't put a book down once they've started. We are working with high-interest easy readers, and motivation is high already, but with NOOK readers I think we can push them over the edge to being real readers who love to read on their own! Not because someone is always nagging them to read but because they have discovered the world of books has opened to them. We have our own top secret reading hide-away with security clearance required for the "General, Chief, Lieutenant, Captain, Secret Agent, Colonel, and Special Agents" that come there to read, read, READ! They love their special place. With special electronic readers it would be the coolest reading class ever!
