Read Aloud Example I
Read Aloud (with some shared reading)
Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type (book level 2.3) is an enjoyable book. It is a silly book and an award-winning one and most of the events in the book cannot actually happen (fantasy). You can use a big book or show a smaller one on your projector.

Preparation: decide ahead of time where you want to stop (maybe three or four times) during the reading, and invite discussion regarding a particular word, a picture or a concept you want to focus on.

These are my main objectives for this read aloud: 1. Enjoyment and comprehension
2. Focus on consonant blends and be able to read those words

T: Introduce the book by showing the cover and telling the students the name of the book, …show more content…

David’s New Friends is a short story and is part of our language arts curriculum series. It is in the first unit and relates to how children feel at the beginning of school. The story is written by award-winning author Pat Mora and illustrated by Ed Martinez. It can also be obtained online

Preparation: Previous discussion of how students feel when school is going to start. Highlight the vocabulary words if necessary. I went over the vocabulary words the day before. The students all have their own book. Have students go to the page where the story begins. If you only have one copy, you can project it on the smartboard.

These are my main objectives for this read aloud: 1. Enjoyment and

    The intriguing storyline of Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type brings both the simplicity of a children's novel and the intelligent humour of a teen or young adult novel.

This results in witty, passive-aggressive banter that people of all ages can enjoy (Click, Clack, Moo). It is part of a 7-part series, all with great reviews, proving the author, Doreen Cronin, knows what she’s

An allegory, by definition, is a symbolic representation, which has been seen to correspond with the plot of the story. Hawthorne bestowed all of the characters as allegories themselves, from the devil to Adam and Eve. Even more so, the commonality items of the novel represent a deeper meaning that when evoked to the reader, the allegory can pose a profound image of idealism not found from reading the text itself.

  • Pre-Kindergarten Literacy: Introducing Parts of a Book

    1053 Words  | 3 Pages

    This lesson was designed for use in a pre-kindergarten classroom over the course of the literacy block, with built in brain breaks for students. The goal was to introduce students to the parts of the book, as well as help them with the unit’s essential question, “How do good readers read books?” Using a shared reading format, students were introduced to the book through an interactive experience; they were asked to describe a strawberry that had been placed before them. Since the book being read centered on a strawberry, the objective was to provide students with both a shared experience and background knowledge, as well as integrate a science standard of using the 5 senses to describe an object. The focus then turned to the big book version of The Big Hungry Bear, where the parts of the book were modeled before giving out smaller copies of the same book to students. As a group the children searched for different parts of the book, sharing aloud to a partner as well as silently showing the teacher. After the introductory period, students followed along as the big book was read, modeling proper word correspondence with a large hand pointer and dramatic wording to model
