Reading for learning

Reading is essential for our children's education and learning. Good for literacy, good for their mental health and good for them academically, but what do we do when our students seem to stop reading for pleasure? How do we keep our students using the library if they are not reading for pleasure?
 
We need to understand that reading for learning is as important as reading for pleasure. At this stage in their lives, this skill needs to be nurtured and supported by school librarians. It is time to open your library doors to Reading for Learning!
