ABSTRACT

This study explores effective strategies for integrating reading culture into classroom culture to create a supportive environment for students' learning and growth. Utilizing a literature review approach, it synthesizes research findings on classroom reading culture construction from both international and domestic sources. Four main strategies are proposed: creating an engaging environment, involving teachers and parents, utilizing digital tools, and connecting reading to the real world. By providing diverse reading materials and comfortable spaces, fostering reading habits jointly with teachers and parents, offering personalized reading experiences through digital tools, and linking reading content with students' actual lives, these methods can effectively promote the construction of a classroom reading culture.
