- 24. CHOICE = VOICE “Students need to make choices in reading that reflect their interests because interest drives engagement. Teachers should encourage wide reading in all genres as well as students who pursue an author or genre study. Allow students to reread favorite books and to abandon a book that no longer interests them.” Penny Kittle http://www.pennykittle.net/uploads/Book%20Love%20handouts%20March%202013.pdf
