? Every educator is a teacher of reading,? the expression goes. That might be a difficult mantra to live by if you consider yourself a mathematician or historian. The truth is that despite your area of expertise, you will find yourself teaching reading and writing at some point during the day in middle or high school. You may be teaching reading to adolescents who struggle to read. With the blitz of video gaming, social networking and texting, students are bombarded with information daily in multiple ways and settings. They are less interested in reading textbooks and course material and more interested in gathering information in a fast-paced, action-packed manner as they access all they need to know on phones, hand-held gaming devices, tablets or laptops. Moreover, teachers are faced with how to keep adolescents engaged with reading in today?s world and 21st-century classrooms. Carianne Bernadowski. A Good Read: Literacy Strategy with Newspapers.
