Hi All, I'm looking for suggestions on what to do with a 4th grade boy who likes to read and won't do anything else but read (I know, hard to believe). He reads instead of doing his homework. He finishes his in-class schoolwork fast in order to read. The teacher tells her class that if they finish their work early they could read. So, this fellow finishes early -- rushing -- and then reads. He has become somewhat passive in wanting to do anything but read. Any ideas on how to help his learning be more enriched because of his willingness to read?? Judy
Education would be so much more effective if its purpose were to ensure that by the time they leave school every boy and girl should know how much they don't know, and be imbued with a lifelong desire to know it." --Sir William Haley, British newspaper editor and broadcasting administrator Please consider the environment before printing this message. _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list Mosaic@literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
