Making the Very Most of Classroom Read Alouds

Select high-quality (what does this mean?), high level, high-interest literature that extends children's knowledge of literature, language, and the world.

Pre-read the book and make notes about places to stop, question, model your thinking, make predictions, connections, etc.

Pose questions throughout the reading that enhance meaning construction and also show how to make sense of texts.

Dialogue during read-aloud events supports students as they construct meaning based on the story and draw upon their personal experiences to build story relevance.

Interactions that focus on meaning engage students with literacy information and demonstrate strategies that they can adopt for use when reading independently.

Might also focus on what they notice about certain words (word work, decoding) writing style (writing instruction) Content (science, social studies, math, etc.)

Should all read alouds be INTERACTIVE read alouds?
