My children are struggling readers but through library visits and exposure to a wide variety of reading materials some of them have developed a love for reading.
During these weekly visits my students would be very excited to get to the library I guess partly because they are going on a field trip.However, when they get to the library all but one student who I have to coax rush for books. The students look for books frantically especially if they have done something in class that they were interested. Some of the boys look for comics and some only look for stories with sport I encourage them to choose any book. I was advised that I should structure library visits based on genres but then my ultimate goal of these library visits is to foster a love for reading. I truly believe that developing this love for reading would help improve fluency, and other reading skills gradually.
