As I was searching around the internet today, I found a site I thought would be great for literacy tutors. Scholastic often has lesson plans, activities and resources that I enjoy, but I really love their new site You Are What You Read.
You Are What You Read would be a wonderful exercise to do with your learner. Basically, you find gently used books that you would like to donate. Then, you print the nameplate and fill it out. Once you have it inside the book, donate the book to your local library or to a charity, or give it to a friend or family member.
Not only would this allow your learner to feel like a part of a community of readers, but it can also allow them to give back to their communities. By giving your learner a way to give back, it can make them feel more apt to participate in you lessons and in their own learning experience.
