10. 4 Myths About Reading


Listen Later

This episode is all about unpacking some common myths and untruths about reading. While there are so many false beliefs when it comes to students and reading, I am only going to take a little bit of time to address four of them. These insights will increase awareness and will provide a fresh outlook on what is best for students.

 

Key Points:

I will be sharing some truths to consider when it comes to these 4 myths,

  • Myth #1: Children have to read the entire book that they are given.
  • Myth #2: The faster a child reads, the better they are at reading.
  • Myth #3: Reading comes naturally to kids and is a natural process.
  • Myth #4: If my student receives intervention, they are getting what they need so I do not need to work with them in the classroom.
