In the first of this two-part podcast, David Booth and Larry Swartz, coauthors of Literacy Techniques, reflect on the many different literacies that kids encounter today--and the challenge for teachers to bring the entire range of literacies to students. In the second part, David and Larry discuss the importance of encouraging authentic responses to texts-- especially with boys-- and how fostering conversations with students is a skill that needs to be practiced.
