Im coming a little late to this discussion. And while it may be naïve, I still believe that if I model a love of reading in what I do and what I say students will catch on. Their love of reading may look different than mine, and it may only last for the one year they are with me, but I believe if I show them, theyll see what to do. They will see how reading gives me pleasure, and because they look up to me as their teacher like most students do they will want to enjoy that pleasure too. In spite of DRAs, RC points, Lexile lunacy, and crazy overscheduling, enthusiasm is contagious.
