How To Read Aloud

Decent Essays
My read aloud did not followed my lesson plan, before I read the story to the students, I forgot to show the students all the pictures in the storybook as I planned. The high points from my read aloud were that the students were engaged by acting out as baby owls or owl mother, and answering the questions from the storybook. The weak points from my read aloud were reading the story too fast, and after I asked a question to the students, I should wait a little longer wait time for the students to think and response. To make the read aloud better for next time, I will need to slow down my speed and pause as needed. Also, after reading the story, I should ask the students some questions for them to connect their own experiences with the story,

    As I go through the story I would bring out each animal along with the gingerbread man, and when I mentioned the famous line “run, run as fast as you can, you can’t catch me, I’m the Gingerbread man, I would pass the gingerbread man to the student and we would pass it back and forth till the end. My tone of voice changed when I was emphasizing famous quotes or lines from the story, or when moments that I think the students will find interesting. When telling the story I want my props to be more engaging, but I enjoy having different endings, and props for the different endings for the students. Family literacy night allowed me to see the things I would change during a lesson whether it is storytelling or reading from a…

    What’s good about this is that children may not realize how often they or others interrupt people who are speaking. Another important component to the story is how the author writes “I have a lot to say, and all of my words are very important to me”. This shows that the author knows that children’s own thoughts, feelings, and needs are the important to themselves. All children need to be aware that their own thoughts, feelings, and needs are important and should be respected. Also, the humor brought into the book really helps to keep the children interested and interacting with the book.…

    A) You are supporting a five year old with their reading – how would you interact? Using basic language and calming tone, suggest talking through the pictures for additional clues. Ask the child to describe what is happening in the pictures then revisit the word or sentence that was the initial obstacle. Continue to use praise as each page is finished, this will allow the child to see how well they’re doing and that they’ll continue to try on each page. Smile and join in the story with your expressions – eg,act shocked when the car gets stuck etc.…

    The class is reading “Woods Runner” by Gary Paulsen. The majority of the time, the teacher will read aloud to the students as they follow along in their own books at their desks.

And since children listen on a higher level than they read, listening to other readers stimulates growth and understanding of vocabulary and language patterns” (Trelease, 2013).…
