Let them choose!
Having students read their required summer reading list with the Learning Ally Audiobook Solution is a great way to ensure they start the school year strong, but it is also important that they get a chance to read the stories they choose. In fact, Learning Ally research shows that when a student self-selects a book, they are 6x more likely to read that book than when it has been added by a teacher.
This discovery corroborates reading research data. Self-selection of texts is one of the most consistent strategies found amongst student motivation in reading research. Choice allows students to take control over their own learning and is an effective way to support the development of motivation when a student can read something that is of interest to them rather than assigned to them (Applegate et al., 2010; Cabral- Marquez, 2015; Fisher et al., 2018; Gambrell, 2011; Gambrell, 2015; Senn, 2012).
Learning doesn’t end when the school year does, so make sure your struggling readers are prepared before school ends. Send home the guide today!
