  1. Implementing Literacy-Based Instructionthrough a Read Aloud Approach

  2. Literacy-Based Instruction • To provide students with rich experiential background in good children’s literature. • To explore content areas through the use of good literature. • To provide instruction in alphabet letters and sounds. • To support learning through the components of literacy.

  3. Our Focus for Today Why should we use Read Aloud books with children? 2. What constitutes a good Read Aloud book? What is the teacher’s role in Read Aloud? 4. Components of Read Aloud. 5. Read Aloud Sequence. 6. Make and take prop.

  4. Read-alouds, a systematic method of reading aloud, • Allow teachers to scaffold children’s understanding of the book being read • Model strategies for making predictions, inferences and explanations • And teach vocabulary and concepts.

  5. In Read-alouds,a storybook is read three times in slightly different ways in order to increase the amount and quality of children’s analytical talk as they answer carefully crafted questions.

  6. Research Research has demonstrated that the most effective read-alouds are those where children are actively involved asking and answering questions and making predictions, rather than passively listening.

  7. Assumption Effective teachers model the role of ideal reader as they read aloud.

  8. Effective teachers…. Model what ideal readers do by explicitly talking as they read, making children aware that they are predicting, making an inference, or changing their ideas about what is happening in a story.

  9. Reading Aloud 1. Book is slightly above their comprehension level. 2. It lends itself to multiple readings 3. It should have a refrain that children can repeat. 4. For PreK 3’s-it becomes more interesting when it contains rhyme or repetition.

  10. 5. For PreK 4’s- includes engaging characters, suspense, a problem and solution. 6. Whole group or small group. 7. Cross curricular activities.

  11. Repeated Interactive Read Aloud Is a systematic method of reading aloud, that allows teachers to: • Scaffold children’s understanding of the book being read • Model strategies for making predications, inferences and explanations • Teach vocabulary and concepts

  12. Repeated Interactive Read Aloud A storybook is read three times in slightly different ways in order to increase the amount and quality of children’s analytical talk as they answer carefully crafted questions.

  13. Analytical Talk Analytical talk involves making predications or inferences that explain a character’s motivation or connect events from different parts of the story. Teachers prompt children to engage in analytic thinking by making comments that model such thinking and then asking thoughtful questions.

  14. What I need to do to prepare for Read Aloud: Teacher • Read • Practice • Whole Group and Small group. • Modifications • Decide on predictions and questions. Children • Give the children experiences with the new vocabulary. • You may do a picture walk.

  24. Second read-aloud: Comment on and ask follow-up questions about the other characters. “How do you think the animals felt when they couldn’t catch the Gingerbread Man? Or What would you have done to catch the Gingerbread Man?”

  25. Third read-aloud: Reconstruct the story. Retelling Question: “What happens next?” Reconstruction Question: “I wonder what would have happened if the fox did not eat the Gingerbread Man?”
