What can enhance a student's love for reading according to literacy practices?

Access to a variety of engaging texts is crucial for enhancing a student's love for reading. When students are presented with a diverse selection of materials—ranging from fiction and non-fiction to poetry and graphic novels—they can find texts that resonate with their interests, backgrounds, and reading levels. This variety not only keeps their attention but also allows them to explore different genres and themes, fostering a sense of curiosity and enjoyment in reading.

Engaging texts can spark students’ imagination and encourage them to think critically about what they read. When students can choose books that they find interesting, they are more likely to develop positive reading habits and a lifelong love for reading. Furthermore, exposure to different types of literature can help students relate to various cultures and experiences, making reading a more inclusive and enriching experience.
