LITERACY TIP
Encourage students to read outside of the classroom with their parents and other caregivers. Share the books that you like to read with them, and ask them to do the same. Ask students to bring in favorite books that can be read with the class during read-aloud time and ask them to share why they like this book. Sharing their own enjoyment and seeing mentors and peers enjoy the act of reading and analyzing texts is likely to positively affect how students regard reading.
