Abstract:

"Readers come to the texts imbued with their own personalities and character traits, their individual experiences and memories, their personal situations and concerns, their cultural background and perspective, and their backlog of language." (Karolides, 1997, p. 9)

"Reading instruction needs to continue as students enter middle…schools because reading is not a skill that is learned once and for all." (Lenski, Wham, & Johns, 1999, p. 4)
