Thursday, January 16, 2020 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm EST

In this webinar, the instructor talked about the importance of reading for students from their early ages, each age and each grade should be given the suitable kind of books that suits their interests and their level in reading. 

A teacher can make a reading survey to know the level of each student and assign him\her to read books that they are able to read and understand. Students can be interviewed as well to know their preferences in reading and what are their favorite genres that they are looking forward to read about. A teacher can also help students choose a book by introducing the different genres and building up a background knowledge about reading. In the Teacher/student interview or conversation, the teacher can check the spelling of the child and find the suitable method to make the student read and enjoy reading in order to continue reading and never stops. Teachers should be working on her students spelling developing. Through the conversation that should be done in a periodic time the teacher can tell how much a student did improve and when can this student move to the other level. 

As teachers, we should take into consideration that the books should have pictures especially for students in the pre-school years.  Moreover, the book cover should be attractive to grab their attention and be excited to know what they will be reading about in this book.
