Listen "Discussion: "Does Discussing Books' Themes with Students Kill the Joy of Reading?""
Episode Synopsis
English teachers really love talking about a novel's themes. But is that always a good thing? Should we just chill on the analysis sometimes? In this episode, Taylor and Tim discuss the pros and cons of focusing on larger themes of a text in an ELA classroom. Does it help kids get more out of reading? Or is it just a buzzkill?
