Edutopia – Kyleen Gray
“Bookmatching is the art of connecting a student to the right book. For it to be successful, the matchmaker (i.e., the teacher) needs to know the student’s personality, interests, aspirations, and reading level. The ultimate goal is to connect students with books they’ll love—and stick with. When bookmatching is successful, it increases student engagement with reading, and has the side benefit of cultivating stronger relationships between students and teachers.” (more)
