Book, Head, & Heart Strategy

Many issues and obstacles often times find their way into the school system, trying to jeopardize the education of younger children and teens. One obstacle that most children and students face everyday is this phrase: Learning to read and Reading to Learn. Now, this phrase can be quite meticulous with the fact that most students find it very difficult to learn let alone read in their literary environment. That's why these two individuals came up with a great idea to coerce children into gaining more knowledge and understanding exactly what they are learning.
Book, Head, and Heart or BHH for short, is a strategy that Kylenne Beers and Robert E. Probst, developed so as to ensure kids with an easier advantage in their learning area. See, BHH is a fundamental strategy that goes with the concepts of questions like what and why something is being read or either learned. For instance, after reading a famous novel by Sandra Brown, I was able to make connections using BHH, and quickly acknowledge the characters. I asked myself questions like questions like What am I reading? Who am I reading about? and How can i relate to this story in any way? Questions like these could be applied to the classrooms by giving students, a definitive perspective on reading and being able to become more engrossed in the story rather than forced because its assignment or test. When Beers and Probst created BHH, they brought about a quicker and more fun way to seek an education and a more in depth look on learning.

Although majority of my teachers had me write and read, it's just the fact that i got enj...
