Encouraging Recreational Reading Through Book Talks, Edward J. Dwyer Jan 1983

Encouraging Recreational Reading Through Book Talks, Edward J. Dwyer

ETSU Faculty Works

Children who have adequate reading skills rarely do any reading that is not specifically required in school. Reading for fun, and sometimes even required reading are frequently given a low priority when time for reading competes with sports, television, free play, music and dance lessons, etc. However, recreational reading is of critical importance for reinforcement of what is learning during reading instruction. The book talk is an excellent approach for motivating students to read outside of the classroom and during opportunities for free reading provided at school. Further, development of important oral communication skills can be fostered as well.
