One of the biggest factors to me as a future middle school teacher is to find topics of interest. I believe that if I provide several book choices and allow the students to decide which one to read, I am encouraging reading. I want my students to find a book interesting or exciting. I want my students to relate to the protagonist in the book in some way. The teacher needs to be a model reader. She should tell her students what she has been reading to show her love of reading.

Absolutely agree w/ this statement, "what she has been reading to show her love of reading." Students at this age crave role models and who better than their teacher.
