Report
on the TEAA recreational reading project |
| On the importance of reading: | |
|
It was simply clear that the work that students and I did was more
efficiently executed if students read. Readers, I came to see,
actually make themselves writers. The idea is just to get students
to turn pages and to enjoy doing so, just the way readers
everywhere do.
- Bill Jones, in the Report on the TEAA project. |
There is no greater divide in life than the one between kids for
whom the experience of learning to read is a painful or tedious
one,... and those for whom the experiences of reading and writing
are ... so intense as to offer a new life of their own.
