Educators hold the key to igniting a lifelong passion for reading, as emphasized by Kathryn Starke in Developing a Love of Reading in Students. Motivation to read can arise from exposure to representative texts, diverse genres, and the use of audiobooks, graphic novels, and switch- accessible texts. Kyleen Gray highlights that the ultimate goal is connecting students with books they love to enhance engagement. Embracing diverse reading options becomes essential in igniting a love of reading and promoting a more inclusive and engaging approach to literacy. Recognizing the fundamental role of reading, educators understand that addressing diverse literacy needs not only boosts students’ competence but also fosters confidence across academic subjects. While some students naturally embrace reading, others may not due to diverse learning styles and abilities that necessitate alternative access to reading options. Encouraging a broad spectrum of reading options not only accommodates diverse needs but also promotes a culture that values every individual’s unique pathway to understanding and enjoying literature.
