This document discusses teaching pedagogies that can promote intrinsic motivation for reading and writing by facilitating a change in layers of consciousness. It outlines Level 1 and Level 2 teaching strategies appropriate for young children and teens respectively. Level 1 strategies include observation, dreaming, play, art therapy and developing phonemic awareness. Level 2 strategies involve conceptual conflicts, questioning, curiosity generation, modeling and the SQ4R reading technique. The goal is to balance intrinsic and extrinsic motivation by relating the latter to the former.
