How do we get students to love reading again? 

Join us for an interactive, in-person workshop to tackle one of the most pressing challenges in multilingual classrooms: transforming reading from a task into a source of joy.

What to Expect
In today’s assessment-driven and level-focused environments, reading can often feel like a chore. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Using the R.E.A.D. framework—Right Level, Engaging, Accessible, and Diverse—we’ll explore practical strategies to:

  • Rebuild students’ confidence in their reading abilities.
  • Spark genuine curiosity and interest in texts.
  • Ensure every student feels represented in what they read.

Through reflection and actionable insights, you’ll leave equipped to make reading a meaningful and enjoyable experience for every learner in your school.

The R.E.A.D. Framework

R - Right Range
  Matching books to students' reading ability to build confidence and support progress.

E - Engaging
  Choosing texts that spark curiosity, enjoyment and relevance.

A - Accessible
  Ensuring all learners have easy access to reading materials, both physically and digitally.

D - Diverse
  Providing a rich range of voices, cultures, genres and perspectives.
