Case: Students won't read at home
I teach high school English, and my students refuse to read at home. Sure, I try to give them interesting texts to read, but there are some things we are required to read that simply aren't interesting. Any ideas?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have found it very beneficial with providing students with reading response questions from the text. Students will need to have read the text in order to write a reflection or answer the specific questions. One former high school teacher of mine used to give pop quizzes over the readings. He would not give a pop quiz to every class on the same day. He would randomly draw a number for the class and on that day, a specific class would be given a pop quiz. This would help to keep students "on their toes" and keep up with the readings. |

| Comments: I'd try fill in the blank worksheets and build from there that way they have to have their head in the book and follow. It may feels 'easier', less monotonous, and tedious that way. |
