Case: Motivating Students to Read
My students read silently for 10 minutes daily and then they record what they read on a reading log. I now have them read at home, but over 75 percent of the students come back to school without their reading recorded. How can I motivate students to read at home because I have explained that this is part of the reason why their reading test scores are so low.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Rather than a materialistic reward, allow them more of a "show and tell" reward. Their name goes in to the bucket every night that their log is filled in. Then on Friday the student whose name is drawn has 5 minutes to share about what they've been reading. This not only gets students excited to earn the privilege, but it also gets students exposed to things that their peers are reading. If they present on Friday you could make sure that they don't get chosen the next week. |
