Reading is magic! By Erica L. Poglajen
Dear students and families of the Academy,
The benefits of reading are numerous; reading opens our minds to new ideas and thoughts. Likewise, it is the key for us to walk into new worlds with our imagination and to live new experiences ... through reading, we access other spaces and times, we dialogue with beings from the past and the future, be it real characters or imaginary creatures. We also discover a wide variety of perspectives, some similar and others different from ours. Reading broadens our horizons, and it is an infallible antidote to loneliness and boredom. Not to mention everything we learn from books: we acquire not only knowledge, information and data, which is no small thing, but also they invite us to reflect on new views and realities. Unknown words and expressions come to meet us and encourage us to discover them. And here is when the most beautiful challenge is played out in our minds: the search for meaning or, in other words, the interpretation of what we are reading.
It is precisely in reading that decoding mechanisms are set in motion, that is, understanding and reflection.
These are superior thinking skills, the exercise of which transforms us into bold and critical readers. In a world where the media and the networks bombard us with messages of all kinds, this capacity for discernment and analysis provided by reading is essential.
That is why in the Academy we have dedicated 2021 to reading, more precisely, to discovering, working on and polishing “reading strategies”, with the clear objective of starting to train enthusiastic, reflective and critical readers, who do not just enjoy the act of reading itself, but also critically decode the texts. In other words, this magazine shows you a wide range of comprehensive reading and literary analysis strategies, that students from the different levels and courses of the Academy learnt and worked on with their teachers. Each reading strategy by Kindergarten, primary and secondary students is accompanied by an analytical or creative work, done according to their linguistic and cognitive level. It is an immense joy to be able to share these strategies with you, in a new edition of our Annual Magazine.
Let us encourage our students, your children, from school and from home, to become fond of books and dive into reading. In the words of Roald Dahl: “I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers, to become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn’t be daunting, they should be funny, exciting and wonderful; and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage.” We certainly do share this passion… it was this passion that has guided us here, allowed us to dream of this magazine and write the pages that you are about to read.

La magia de la lectura Erica L. Poglajen
Queridos alumnos y familias de la Academia:
Los beneficios de la lectura son numerosos; leer abre nuestra mente a nuevas ideas y pensamientos. Asimismo, es la llave para que entremos, con nuestra imaginación, a diversos mundos y vivamos experiencias enriquecedoras… a través de la lectura, accedemos a otros espacios y tiempos, dialogamos con seres del pasado y del futuro, con personajes reales o creaturas imaginarias; descubrimos realidades, algunas similares y otras diferentes a la nuestra. Leer amplia nuestros horizontes y es un antídoto infalible para la soledad y el aburrimiento. Por no hablar de todo lo que aprendemos leyendo: adquirimos no sólo conocimientos, información y datos -que no es poca cosa-, sino que además los libros nos invitan a reflexionar sobre nuevas perspectivas y miradas. Palabras y expresiones desconocidas vienen a nuestro encuentro y nos incitan a descubrirlas. Y aquí es donde se juega en nuestro intelecto el más hermoso de los desafíos: la búsqueda del sentido, la indagación… la pregunta por el ¿por qué? de lo que estamos leyendo.
