Motivation for Literacy
"Activities that promote enjoyment of books and appreciation for the usefulness of reading and writing motivate students. Classroom learning communities that engage students in creative, relevant and meaningful literacy activities support the development of motivation for literacy. Student engagement in learning is a predictor of academic success and promotes inquiry and knowledge building."
