Dr. Krashen said in his lecture in Fairfax:
"The better the SCHOOL LIBRARY is the better the reading scores are"
"Students have to have ACCESS to books in a comfortable and quiet place and this place is the SCHOOL LIBRARY"
Here are some websites suggested by him:
Dr. Krashen's website
The International Journal of Foreign Language Teaching
Susan Ohanian's website
Jim Trelease's website
Alfie Kohn's website
ESL Podcast (This website is run by his former student)
Give books away. Get books you want
Some tips he gave in the workshop:
READ in the language you want to learn, READ in your own language, READ, READ and READ!
