Literacy is essential for all jobs—whether you need to know how to read and write a service proposal, report card comments, or a case study. But students don’t often make that connection—they see their classwork as something assigned to them and that they need to get through rather than as something that can help them with their future goals. When kids understand the why behind their education, it takes on new meaning for them.
