Children's Attitudes to Reading: Do Teachers Know?

McKinlay, Susan

Reading, v24 n3 p166-78 Nov 1990

Compares the reading attitudes of students with reading difficulties to teachers' impressions of their students' reading attitudes. Finds that teachers underestimate their students' positive attitude toward reading activities and that structured observation by teachers may increase teachers' knowledge of students' attitudes.
