STANDARDS ALIGNED SYSTEM

Keith Curry Lance Found: When school librarians and public librarians truly collaborate, students’ reading scores increase by 10 – 15 points. »Colorado Study, 1998

Is Lance The Only One Who Believes This? Barbara Heyns found that most children make similar gains in reading during the school year. Children of poverty fall behind during the summer. –Summer Learning and the Effect of School, 1975 Shin, Fay H. and Stephen D. Krashen. Summer Reading, p. 3

What Did Entwisle, Alexander, and Olson Discover? Children of high income families consistently made better gains over the summer. At the end of 5 years, they were ahead of low and middle income students. The difference was cumulative. Free voluntary reading made the difference. –Children, Schools, and Inequality, 1997 Shin, Fay H. and Stephen D. Krashen. Summer Reading, p. 4

What Makes The Difference? Humans demonstrate different behaviors in different settings. Print-rich environments support reading skill development more than graffitied environments. It’s not about the ability; it’s about environment and the opportunities therein. Reading is one of the primary means by which we gain knowledge. –Susan Neuman, “The Knowledge Gap,” PA Library Association, Harrisburg, 2008.

Free Reading Free reading promotes higher test scores than other directed reading activities. –Warwick Elley and Francis Mangubhai, “The Impact of Reading on Second Language Learning,” The Reading Research Quarterly, Shin, Fay H. and Stephen D. Krashen. Summer Reading, p. 18

Are School Librarians Effective? YES!!! In Dauphin County Library System, summer reading registrations increased from 4,039 to 8,672 from 2004 to 2007! In the spring of 2005 DCLS began to focus on working with the school librarians to promote summer reading.

Partnering Challenges Animosity Barriers
