Boys Reading

Probe testing indicated that many boys were not achieving their chronological age when reading fiction texts. To create a culture of reading fiction amongst the boys in the class I followed some recommendations in the below reading. Strategies I incorporated were as follows 

  • I used comics as a way to engage and motivate the boys to read regularly 
  • I read regularly to the class in order to provide a male role model as a reader 
  • I made connections through twitter to the author Andy Griffith.
