What is a book nook?

A book nook is a safe, quiet, distraction free, and enjoyable place for your child to read. It is a fun place because they get to pick the place they read all by themselves. In the classroom while students are independently reading they have a choice to sit on the carpet, on a stool, at my desk, at their desk, criss-cross on their table, etc. During independent reading time I am making sure they are reading the book the right way, pointing to words, looking at the pictures, and sounding out words. Does your child have a quiet book nook at home? If not, find a quiet space for them to read without any distractions. You will see how much they enjoy reading when they have their own place to read!
