----- Original Message ----- From: "bonita" <bonita@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: book reports One way I use to get students motivated to read is by giving them an extra 3% on their teuda for every extra book they read. For example, the class should have read 2 books in the first semester. If the student reads 3 books (and does an extra book report), she gets her extra 3%. It usually works (at least for girls!) In the past, I've had students' parents calling to ask what magic I worked to get their daughter, who has seldom picked up a book in the past, to read. Sometimes, a very significant proportion of their year grade is made up of extra book report bonuses.
