We all have them - those kiddos who we just cannot get into reading, and it seems like nothing we try makes a difference. This week, I share 5 foundational pillars of getting students engaged and inspired to read, drawing from my innovative literacy program, Dogs Help Kids Read and Succeed. I promise you that when you apply these techniques and strategies in your own classroom consistently, you will experience a dramatic difference in your students' reading engagement.
