In this episode I talk you through the ins and outs of Free Voluntary Reading. I talk to you about how important it is to make sure the texts you have available are comprehensible as well as when, how, and in what way to introduce FVR in your classes. I also talk about what mistakes to avoid and what you should do during reading. This podcast episode is FULL of gold, and yes, I threw in a Brain Break at the end too!
