Building a Love for Reading
Read alouds are more than just a fun break in the classroom—they’re a cornerstone of literacy development. When teachers read aloud, they model fluent reading, introduce new vocabulary, and demonstrate comprehension strategies. Students not only listen, but also think critically, make predictions, and connect the story to their own experiences.
Effective read alouds spark curious discussions and help build a lifelong love of reading. By guiding students through meaningful conversations about the text, teachers help learners of all levels deepen understanding and engage with literature in a purposeful way.
Vocabulary Awareness
With the Science of Reading, comprehension and vocabulary are each essential strands in the reading rope. Exposing students to new vocabulary during read alouds is a key step in building the foundation for future decoding and reading success. While read aloud texts may not always be at a decodable level for your students, the rich vocabulary they encounter is crucial—helping them unlock and understand those words later as their reading skills develop.
My free sticky questions include a list of suggested vocabulary words from the text that you may want to teach to your students.
