Kitakyushu JALT:

Simply Read: Developing a reading habit in your learners

Date: Thursday, October 13th, 2005 Time: 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Speaker: Clyde Fowle

Description:
This workshop will look at some of the advantages of incorporating extended reading into language learning programmes. The rational for encouraging students to read extensively will be discussed and the session will consider the practicalities of introducing and managing an extensive reading programme. Participants will have the opportunity to evaluate some readers and try out a range of 'authentic' classroom activities that can be used to accompany readers.

Participants will leave with an overview of the key factors to consider when introducing extended reading into a language programme and practical ideas of how to exploit readers with their learners.
