These materials from Scholastic will give my students "choice" in the reading process. For those who are reluctant readers, magazines provide a nonthreatening way to stay informed. No longer will students simply pick up a book in my room and place it back down because it looks too "big" and too "overwhelming" to read. Scholastic Action magazines trick kids into reading nonfiction because of the way it is organized. The writing and textural structure entices students to continue to read to find out facts as well as trick them into learning. Who would have thought reading could be so much fun?
