   How do I encourage students to have a purpose for reading?

   • Of course, encouraging students to see the ‘point’ in having a purpose for reading is only the beginning. The ultimate goal is to support students to determine their own ‘why’ for reading in different contexts, and to use this to take control of their reading experiences and actively guide their interactions with texts. Here are a few ideas:

   Is there a need to encourage students to read?

   • The problem nowadays of course is that there seems to be less of a desire to read than in the past. Teachers often complain that ‘our students don’t read!’ and that ‘reading is not part of our culture’. What’s more, most teachers believe that trying to encourage students to read is an enormous, and often time-wasting, challenge.

   What motivates students to read?

   • Students who read for the sheer enjoyment of reading are intrinsically motivated. They are not reading for the external rewards sometimes offered by teachers, such as toys, food, candy, or grades. These students also choose to read during their free time both in and out of school, initiating reading without promises of either reward or punishment.

   How do I encourage students to read a book?

   • Autonomy helps foster reading motivation and engagement. Consider giving students the chance to choose between a few pieces to read for in-class assignments (I recommend two to four). Try expanding beyond traditional books and offering optional pieces, like comic books, artwork, music, or podcasts that are good pairings for your core text.

   Why do students want to read?

   • Motivation to read can spring from external forces, like a grade, or internal forces, like a personal desire. We know self-efficacy in particular plays a role in reading development: Research has demonstrated that when students believe they are competent at a given task, they perform better, regardless of their previous performance.

   Why is reading important in elementary school?

   • Students are able to explore topics in depth and at length, and come away with understanding of text that can then enhance future reading experiences. Even at the lower elementary grades, students are capable of learning multiple concepts and making connections between those concepts.

   • make it easy. Reading doesn’t have to be difficult to be useful. The literature on extensive reading – typified by reading large amounts of simplified text which the learner finds easy to process – shows clear benefits.
   • explain the benefits. For students about to embark on a university degree programme, it is unlikely that they will want to read in a second language for pleasure.
   • give some choice. Like most skills, people will get better at reading by reading. Therefore, reading needs to become a routine. This is more likely to happen if learners have some degree of choice.
   • use tasks. Most reading lessons work on the basis of the teacher (or materials writer) selecting a text and then setting exercises that require the learner to pick out bits of information.

One way to introduce this to students in an experiential way is through Cris Tovani’s ‘house’ exercise featured in her book I Read It, But I Don’t Get It (2016: 25-26), based on a passage from Pichert and Anderson (1977):
