Teaching Literacy Tutorials
  • Reading Rockets: Short videos demonstrating how to support reading with PreK - 3rd grade students.
  • Big Ideas on Doing an "Interactive Read-Aloud" When Reading TO Children​
    • Big 3: Plan, Keep the momentum of the story, invite response after
    • ​Introducing book: author, title, picture walk, discuss genre of the book; contextualize story and key concepts of story; set a purpose of the storytime.
    • During reading: read expressively by practicing beforehand and using your voice as an underlining tool; read slowly; pause and go with the style of the author (i.e. funny vs serious); stop and ask open-ended questions with wait time (i.e. what are we thinking so far?) and listen to what they say; don’t overdo it with too many questions
    • ​After reading: invite personal response (i.e. what they thought of the story); ask high-level questions (i.e. ask about characters in the book) and where in the text they got their answer (“let’s revisit the text” and go back and re-read sections/ details that they may have missed); focus on key themes of the story (you should have thought of these before the storytime)
