[quote=Anonymous]I'm thinking about paying my 8 y/o DS to read daily, i.e. one dollar for every book finished with a half page book report written. I want to encourage him to read, improve his fluency, and to learn to read for pleasure. Right now, getting him to read becomes a power struggle and I'm wondering if an incentive (he loves money) would get him over the hurdle to finding how enjoyable reading can be. Anyone done something like this? [/quote]
