Building Intrinsic Motivation in
Middle Level Readers
The Crazy Reading Ladies June 27,
2017
The Crazy Reading Ladies
Blog Website
Your (semi) regular
dose of crazy! All sorts of good stuff!
Research …
Promise this won’t take long!
“While students acquire the skills of
reading, they must develop a positive
reading identity to remain readers.”
~Frank Serafini, 2013
And this…
“The single factor most strongly
associated with reading achievement -
more than socioeconomic status or any
instructional approach – is independent
reading.”
-Krashen, 2004
“Reading is the only
out-of-school activity
for 16-year-olds that
is linked to getting a
managerial or
professional job in
later life.”
-University of Oxford,
2011
So, obviously…
 Reading is more important than ever!
 Right?
Know your enemy
3. Accessibility
 Anyone else not have a librarian?
2.Time
 Kids’ lives are FULL.
1. Perception
 Their perception is their reality.
Believe
Do set goals.
 Don’t move the finish line.
Do meet them where they are.
 Don’t judge their choices.
Do make books ubiquitous.
 Don’t pass up an opportunity to share books.
Do provide accommodations.
 Don’t give up!
Relationships
When students cannot believe in
themselves, we must believe in them
Eliminate “can’t” from your vocabulary.
Fighting Perception
 Advertise
◦ Theme song!
Create a new perception
 Leverage the power of positive peer
pressure
 Make it social
 Daily book talks
 Our persona
◦ Model love of reading
◦ Love out loud
Finding Time
Lord, grant me the serenity to accept
the things I cannot change…
That doesn’t mean they won’t
need encouragement…
Increasing Accessibility
 Classroom libraries – open to all
 Book Buffet
 After School Club
 Reading Lunches
 Test day care packages
 Bookmobile
 Audio on Google Drive
 Stop, Drop & Read Day
 If you have $, spend it on books
 Leverage devices!
The CRL effect
 Extrinsic begets intrinsic

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Introduce selves All In!
  2. We don’t have to convince you that reading is important.
  3. It’s not enough to teach novels in class…we have to get them to pick up books on their own in their free time.
  4. Our single greatest responsibility is to turn kids into readers. (apologies to the parents who pay for weekend Russian math, viola lessons, and two club hockey teams)
  5. Well no. It’s ALWAYS been important. But now we have more competition. WE are more important than ever! Yay, us!
  6. Classroom libraries have books legit older than me. Transportation to and from library is problematic. How exactly do you get the mountain to Mohammad? Time – kids are overscheduled, it’s true. Schools days are packed, Perception – reading is for dorks. No one reads. They think they don’t like it. They don’t see “cool” people reading.
  7. Audiobooks Books of all levels – no one can see what you’re reading on a Kindle! Involve students in selection. Books at prizes. Caught being kind. Book Buffet. Stop Drop & Read The only two things you should ever say to a child when they tell you what they’re reading “I loved that one. We should talk about it when you’re done!” or “I haven’t read that yet. You’ll have to tell me what you think.”
  8. Bridget – lowest reader (by GRADE score) in entire school – single digit percentile End of year – wrote a final essay about TKM that made me cry Defended me to the district big wigs in her “DDM” GRADE scores by end of year – 80% Can’t story 6th grade participation in All In – 89%
  9. Have to be persistent. What are we competing with – things that are loud, in their face, have music. We can do that!! Story of this video. -Principal. School Psychologist, Guidance Counselor, and the Crazy Reading Ladies. – Crisis Team
  10. The love to see others love something. Online discussion boards are great for introverts! Shelf talkers. Book talks on morning news.
  11. Time is an excuse. Not a reason. Solitaire First hallway book Orthodontist Chan – reading in the café
  12. Hated the book. Loved the song. Fake it til you make it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGH-AbZufPE
  13. For any required reads: Be ready with displays of “If you loved The Outsiders…” “If you loved To Kill a Mockingbird…” Live in an instant gratification world. They can binge watch 13 Reasons Why tonight if you don’t have that book READY TO GO.
  14. How does this tie into motivation? We acknowledge that people believe giving a child a free pizza for reading is not best practice. We’re not giving them a movie ticket. We’re giving them a social experience. We believe that, too. BUT. You have to get them to PICK UP A BOOK for them to discover that they love to read. Part of the reason they love hockey, viola, etc. – it gives them a sense of pride accomplishment We need to learn from those activities. Why do kids love sports. Because they get to: *hang out with friends *have a common experience to talk about *be good at something *and WIN
  15. Social Prag in action! Easy to connect with other kids because the common denominator is the book. Even the smallest connection to the book…don’t kill yourself to make it legit! Scavenger Hunts Trivia (movement is great!) Emoji decoder (moments from the book depicted in emojis) Tableau Gollum Slalom / Hungry Hungry Humans When it doubt, put ‘em in sacks.
  16. Field trips!
  17. Jack and Beverly story – safe place/all boy class/principal/first kiss Use social media to make reading fun!
  18. Teacher testimonial video, if time
