We ♥ Books!

In many cases, pupils don't feel encouraged to engage with literature. They neither want to read long passages nor feel motivated enough to work with them. As a result, they have difficulties in finding access to novels or poetry in particular. If we set up a literary platform to awaken pupils to literature and create a place where they can describe and discuss their own reading experiences, in what ways will this virtual classroom help teachers to arouse their pupils' interest in literature?

Schools and Literature

This is an interesting newspaper article from The Guardian.
It deals with the serious problem that there is already a whole generation that does not read.
Even more shocking: young teachers (who often have studied literature at university) have difficulties to find access to literature!

Hey girls, unfortunately I am sick at home. But I am doing "home office" and check the block if you have any questions or so.
