Reading Aloud…
READ ALOUD ASSIGNMENT:
You are invited to choose an ENGAGING book to read aloud to the students in your internship classroom. With your cooperating teacher’s help, select a picture book to read aloud. If you are in an upper-elementary classroom, you may select a novel to read when you are there full-time, but for now, select a picture book. Read a novel in November when you are there full-time…
- You will rehearse your read aloud, plan appropriate stopping points, think about questions you may ask, vocabulary to discuss, etc.
- You will read aloud on Friday, September 9 or 16.
- You will then write a reflection of your read aloud experience and post to your blog. Think about what went well, what you will do differently next time you read, and the most important learning that YOU experienced from reading aloud to your students.
- Be sure to solicit feedback from your teacher on how the read aloud went.
Be sure to identify the grade level, the book’s title/author/illustrator, and the genre of your picture book. As soon as you have decided upon a book to read aloud, post the book information to your blog. I will be at Hardin Park both Fridays.
I am more than happy to help you choose a book! Let’s set up a time to talk…
