en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 apr 2010 – vârsta până la 17 ani
A compilation of over 50 reading project ideas, including implementation ideas and examples, helping to promote lifelong reading habits while meeting the social and interactive needs of today's youth.Social Readers: Promoting Reading in the 21st Century is about making reading meaningful to the Web 2.0 generation through active engagement and socially interactive projects. Organized into four broad categories-entertainment, active participation, control and choice, and technology-the book offers more than 50 specific project ideas for promoting reading in the classroom, school, library media center, or public library. Each project includes a description, cost estimate, planning time needed, suggested supplies, and instructions for running the project successfully. Topics such as sharing, involvement, book promotions, social networking, and developing informed readers are also covered. A preface and introduction provide an overview of the needs and preferences of the current generation of students, a discussion of the necessity for socializing reading, and insights into how to use the book effectively. Bottom line: Social Readers will help librarians and educators change their practices to accommodate the ever-evolving needs of today's students.

Recenzii

Here is a resource for librarians, classroom and reading teachers, and administrators, providing ideas for interactive projects to encourage reading. Author Preddy is a middle school library media specialist, and based on a reading-intervention program at her school, the book promotes the idea of making reading into a social activity using 'the Three Rs' (reading, relationships, and role models). More than 50 projects, ranging from book clubs and bookmark contests to virtual author visits, are described. Each project description provides cost, length of planning time, supplies, and details for implementation along with samples and forms. . . . Overall, however, this is a good how-to resource for the novice and a refresher for the veteran.
This book gives lots of suggestions for promoting reading or, at least, triggering ideas for some other activities that might be better tailored to the school's population.
This resource is an excellent addition to all school and public libraries. . . . Highly recommended.
