Interactive Read Aloud and Literature Discussion
When children are actively listening to and discussing a text, all of the strategic actions for comprehending are in operation. In an interactive read aloud, the listener is freed from decoding and is supported by the oral reader’s fluency, phrasing, and stress – all elements of what we sometimes call expression. The scene is set for a high level of comprehending or thinking together through a text.

Thinking within the text
Understand the problem of a story
Recognize characters and report important details after reading
Thinking beyond the textBring background knowledge to understanding characters and
their problems
Make connections between texts and their own life experiences
Use evidence from text to support predictions
Make connections between familiar texts and discuss similarities and differences
Thinking about the textNotice similarities and differences among texts that are by the
same author or are on the same topic
Have opinions about texts and state the basis for opinions (tell why)

Did Lily love Julius?
Ah, (restating) just not showing it
What changed?

Our ultimate goal as teachers is to help each student in our schools become a reader who loves books and all they have to offer. Reading is more than basic decoding competency. It has the potential to nourish the intellect, the emotions and the spirit. It feeds and replenishes the art and skill of writing. A child who lives a literate life in school and has pleasurable experiences with written language will make a place for reading and writing throughout life.

Work in partners while observing.
#1. Record the ways the teacher supports her students in thinking within, beyond and about text.
#2. Record the reading behaviors of the students. How do their behaviors demonstrate their thinking within, beyond and about text?

Ask Nicely
Thinking within the text– Notice and derive information from pictures– Bring background knowledge to understanding characters and
their problems– Talk about characters, problems and events in a story– Acquire new words from listening and use in discussion– Understand the meaning of words during reading
Thinking beyond the text– Infer characters feeling and intentions
Thinking about the text– Understand that an author wrote the book– Understand that an artist illustrated the book

Opening Moves & Embedded Teaching
if you want to get the most instructional power from interactive read alouds, it is important to plan for teaching in a more precise way.

Planning in a Precise Way:Opening Moves
• …set the tone for the reading
• …should vary

What kind of expectations might one set for active listening?
Prompt children to anticipate a book by a favorite author. Ask children to make connections to a previously read text. Alert children to unusual features of the text, such as the
structure or narrator. Provide important background information Raise questions to spark curiosity Lay the groundwork for children’s understanding of diverse
settings and people. Raise questions in the readers’ mind.

Planning in a Precise Way:Embedded Teaching
Intentional Conversation (embedded teaching):
• ..the talk is intentional because you have in mind the reading process and the particular text you are sharing.
• …as the more expert other, you are guiding and shaping the conversation so that your students learn more about the kind of thinking (systems of strategic actions) readers use

Texts for Interactive Read Aloud
Texts for Interactive Read Aloud• Are often displayed in the room for students to explore
during independent reading• Are often organized in text sets based around themes,
topics, authors, genre and are used as mentor texts in writer’s workshop
• Represent the diversity of our world• Contain topics and themes for rich discussion• Are often picture books, but can be short stories, chapter
books, poems, etc.

• “ Children learn not only from your instruction but from the environment in which they live and work every day. They spend about six hours a day, 180 days a year, in a classroom – approximately 1,080 hours a year. During the nine years it takes children to progress from kindergarten and eighth grade, our children spent 9,720 hours in school or combining elementary and secondary school – 14,040 hours!
![Page 58: Bas webinar informing instruction and measuring growth](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070322/559033941a28abf42c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
• That’s a lot of time to be in a room with twenty or thirty other people. Students learn best in a variety of social settings that take full advantage of the community learning power of collaboration and shared ideas. As they approach the challenge of reading, they benefit from many social contexts that are possible within a classroom community- whole group, small group and individual instruction. TCF xxvi
