Presenter: Teri Lesesne
Level:  Middle, Secondary

Teri Lesesne takes on the myths about reluctant readers in the middle and high school such as:

  • Older readers don't like books with pictures, do they?
  • Teachers must assign book reports–how else will they know if students read them?
  • Graphic novels may keep them entertained but how will we ever use them in my classroom?
  • Audio books are not real reading, right?

Ultimately, what can attendees expect to get out of this web seminar?

  1. Get book recommendations of over 35 titles that will make a difference for their older reluctant readers tomorrow.
  2. Rethink the types of experiences they structure around literature to motivate students to read.
  3. Unpack issues around motivation so that they can do something about it.
