Real Reading vs. Fake Reading

Our class learned all about what's our independent reading time should look like. We made a chart for real reading vs. fake reading. Then I took pictures of my class and they wrote sentences about their reading. Here are some of the pictures and sentences they came up with.
Fake reading is a book on top of your head.
Real reading is looking at the book.
Fake reading is playing with your books.
Real reading is eyes on the book.
Fake reading is sleeping with a book on your head.
Real reading is turning the pages. 

Then we made a bulletin board for real vs fake reading. I still reference this from time to time when students aren't reading as they should.

What things do you do in your classroom to help students understand how they should read independently?
