In addition to access, I think the success also depends on how well the previous teacher promoted and instilled a culture of reading. I assume if students had a positive experience the year before, they would be more willing, and more likely, to read over the summer. Anyway, these are really interesting questions raised by your data.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5590105980864822497.post-43853189893890659972014-10-05T15:43:53.943-04:002014-10-05T15:43:53.943-04:00I wonder how many students purchase or check out b...I wonder how many students purchase or check out books that cannot track? I believe more than 21% of our students are reading and doing summer reading assignments. Anonymous polls I've run in class when I did not teach IB and AP would suggest a higher percentage too (75% or so). Can we ever really know how many read and how many do not if students are not in our spheres of influence? Thanks for thinking about summer reading and keeping the questions in front of us.
