Give them what they want: Marantz PB Symposium PresoTeri Lesesne
This document discusses what types of books kids say they want based on a Scholastic Kids & Family Reading Report. It identifies that kids want books that make them laugh, let them use their imagination, and have characters they wish they could be like. It provides examples of each type of book that fulfill these desires, such as silly books, books with magic or art, and books about sports reporters or artists. The document emphasizes finding these qualities in books to engage kids as readers.
This document summarizes and discusses several studies and research on readers:
- A 1950s study found that kids disliked required classics and preferred books by authors of their own gender.
- Research found that access to real books and viewing reading as pleasure rather than instruction leads to stronger reading skills.
- Studies show that who carries meaning in texts, choice in reading materials, and balanced book collections impact student engagement.
- Additional research highlighted the importance of daily independent reading time, reading accuracy and comprehension, peer discussion of reading, and read alouds for student literacy development.
Science Fiction: There's Something for EveryoneKarin Perry
This document provides a list of science fiction genres and subgenres including apocalyptic/post-apocalyptic fiction, biopunk, dystopia, extra-sensory perception, robots/androids/cyborgs and artificial intelligence, space/aliens/extra-terrestrial fiction, time travel/parallel universes, and virtual reality/gaming.

Sharing literature with kids has several benefits: it aids in language development and acquisition; it develops empathy by allowing kids to experience different perspectives through reading; and it supports becoming lifelong readers by cultivating a love of reading for pleasure and enjoyment from an early age. Research shows reading enjoyment is more important for educational success than socioeconomic status, and engaging kids with reading prevents struggling readers and supports reading development. Overall, sharing literature enriches kids' imaginations, transmits culture, and has cognitive and social-emotional benefits.
The document discusses developing a reading identity and summarizes research conducted with educators in Texas. It found that the majority of educators surveyed read 1-2 books per month, do not read graphic novels or use audiobooks, and do not have a presence on social media. The document suggests this could impact literacy in schools as educators are not fully engaging with the types of texts and formats that interest students. It encourages educators to focus on professional development to improve their own reading identities and habits.
