Study Notes
Emerging Ways to Read Aloud
- Reading aloud is an instructional practice/strategy where a teacher reads text aloud to learners.
- Teachers should incorporate pitch, tone, pace, volume, pauses, eye contact, and questions into their reading aloud for a captivating experience.
- Reading aloud benefits developing critical thinking, listening habits, motivating pupils to read, easy and quick reading, easy assessment of readers’ comprehension, extending attention span, and enriching vocabulary.
- The most effective method of conducting reading aloud is by actively involving the children through interaction.
- Teachers should use interactive reading aloud, retold or dramatized reading aloud, multiple pieces, similar topic reading aloud, or description initiated reading aloud.
- Effective reading aloud practices today are using sophisticated stories through big books and picture books.
Prominent Techniques in Reading Aloud
- Teachers should strongly imply the main problem or an overview of the literary piece.
- Sustain the children’s attention using dramatic pauses, appropriate gestures, a variety of pacing, and plenty of eye contact.
- Select the best location or make-shift ambiance to suit the theme of the piece.
- Conduct follow-up activities after the read-aloud activity by conducting writing or drawing-related tasks.
- For older elementary learners, teachers must vary their location during the read-aloud activity to accommodate learners and maximize participation.
- When reading a picture book, children must see the pages of the material.
- Giving opportunities for pair and small group discussion before, during, or after the read-aloud activity promotes high engagement.
- Use smart e-books as a variation for printed ones.
- Teachers can invite a person to do the reading. For instance, asking one teacher wearing an animal costume to read the story of “The Monkey and the Turtle”.
