As a teacher, I’ve watched something shift over the past few years. Once, I could hand a book to a student and see their imagination light up. Now? Many hesitate. Some roll their eyes. Others say, “I don’t read.”
It’s not that they can’t read. It’s that they no longer see reading as something meaningful for them.
And that breaks my heart a little.
Any solutions????
@Nawres-Alabed You're not alone it’s a growing challenge. Try connecting books to their world: graphic novels, audiobooks, TikTok-famous titles, or stories that reflect their lives. Let them choose and own their reading. Curiosity comes alive when they feel seen.

Dear, It happens everywhere and almost with every student, even adults. As a motivator, we can motivate our students by applying methods like storytelling, group discussions, presentations, assignments, and quiz competitions, which can build curiosity among students towards reading.

@Nawres-Alabed Set up book clubs, reading groups, literature circles. Many students (especially boys) need to interact with each other around texts. It greatly enhances their comprehension and makes it so much more enjoyable.

Yes, it’s heartbreaking but not hopeless. Start with student interests offer choice, use graphic novels, or audiobooks. Make reading social with book circles, read-alouds, and creative discussions. Model your own love for reading. When students see reading as relevant, joyful, and empowering, the spark can return.
@Nawres-Alabed with students to show them it's a valuable and enjoyable activity.
@Nawres-Alabed students select their own reading materials and decide how to demonstrate their understanding of them.
@SOBIARANAM-IRFAN Pick books related to units of study or a student's personal passions to increase motivation.

@Mariya-Rajpar such as a "Read-a-Thon" or a field trip to the local library to make reading a communal and exciting experience.
@Nawres-Alabed by providing diverse books and comfortable spaces, such as reading nooks, that invite interaction.
