To read books effectively and efficiently, it's important to set aside dedicated time for reading, choose books that interest you, take notes while reading, and summarize key points. Additionally, try to eliminate distractions and create a comfortable reading environment to enhance focus and comprehension.
To interest someone in reading you have to find the one topic that they love to talk/think about or do. Have them read books involving what they love helps them focus and find an interest. My students do best with reality based stories rather than fiction - that too may be important. If they can learn from the book they may find more value in it.

Reading Counts points are part of a reading assessment program designed to encourage students to read books and demonstrate comprehension. Students earn points by reading specific books and passing quizzes that assess their understanding of the material. The points can be used to track progress and motivate students in their reading journeys. This system often aligns with educational goals, fostering a love for reading while improving literacy skills.
Students can try accessing books from public libraries, exploring digital resources like e-books or audiobooks, joining book clubs, borrowing books from friends, or purchasing books from bookstores or online retailers. Additionally, they can explore free online platforms that offer a wide range of literary works.
