[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If many of your reluctant readers are boys, have you tried stocking the room with Star Wars and Minecraft fiction books?

I also really hate to suggest this, but the Captain Underpants  series is another great way to entice reluctant boys to read.  [/quote]

I really think it's all about peer pressure. If the entire class is reading a certain book, [b]the reluctant readers will eventually find the book interesting[/b]. Especially if one day a week is also choice reading.[/quote]

Have you ever spent time in a classroom?[/quote]

Do you think they will learn more from having them read and actually be responsible for understanding something they've read or just reading on their own and reading at a low level? Are you going to let them pick all their high school books too? Give some independent reading and the rest can be choices from several books the teacher picks. Our school does a rating system and you typically get your first or second choice for the book club. I've never heard a complaint.[/quote]
