A series of questions about reading is handed out to the students to open a discussion about the importance, the value of reading and their reading habits.
As homework: The students write down (trying to organise in a text) the answers to the questions, to be shared in the forum.
- Do you like reading?
- How many books do you read in a year?
- Did your parents use to read you stories, books when you were a child?
- Do you like the most reading a book or watching a film?
- What was the last book you read?
- What is your favourite genre (e.g. historical novel, detective stories, romance…)?
- Do you believe that it is important to read?
- Did you think that people read enough books?
- Do you have a favourite writer? Who are they?
- What would you do to promote reading?
- Do you prefer traditional books or e-books?
- What book would you suggest to your peers?
