Teacher's log on to keep kids reading

Notes:
  • Teachers embrace the use of technology
  • Teachers should work on children's strengths and interests 
  • Encouraging all sorts of reading 
  • Parents should be reading to children at home 
  • Teachers should communicate with children on how to improve

Summary:
Teachers are embracing technology instead of encouraging children to improve on their reading and writing skills. Teachers need to focus on an individual’s reading interests. Parents can assist by reading at home books that their children enjoy. Teachers should alter the way they provide feedback to the students. They can be more creative for example creating a podcast which consists of strategies that students can follow to improve.

Personal Reflection:
In my opinion, teachers play a huge role in encouraging and challenging students to keep their interest in reading. Parents can also contribute by reading at home for their children beginning to nurture that skill at an early age. Nursery rhymes and bedtime stories are great examples to build up their child’s love for reading and vocabulary. But the main aspect of reading is not to push the child as they will develop that skill overtime.
