Reading motivation research is clear: Allowing students to make choices about their reading material increased the likelihood that they would engage more in reading. Research suggests that providing genuine student choices increases effort and commitment to reading. Providing balanced book collections at all grade levels is vital to engagement during both reading instruction and self-selection. This work suggests that a balanced collection includes lots of informational titles and a variety of print materials. Researches have noted that nonfiction books were the overwhelming choice of first grade students. My students are curious. Help me ignite their passion by allowing them to see reading as a means to learn and create even more questions.
