NOTES
Anne ZesigerDeer Park ISD
SHARED READING
“Shared reading should be a time when the teacher is in control of the reading experience. As a teacher who is reading, I can stop to clarify or bring straggling or sleeping readers back to the text. I can occasionally ask questions that move students forward if they seem lost. I can stop to quickly make sure students have gained meaning from text.” (Allen, 2000)
SHARED READINGSHARED READING
“During shared reading, the decoding is done by the teacher (or tape), so student readers can focus their cognitive energies on the tasks of comprehension: visualizing, questioning, inferring, making word associations, predicting, connecting, and analyzing. As these comprehension tasks become automatic, they can be transferred to students' independent reading or a shared reading of more complex texts.” (Allen, 2000)
READING ALOUD
“Reading aloud serves to reassure, entertain, inform, explain, arouse curiosity and inspire our kids.” (Trelease, 2001)
“Talk is always a motor behind intellectual development, but I think it is uniquely important in the teaching of reading. The conversations readers have in the air become the conversations they have in their minds. We teach reading by teaching talking-about-reading and writing-about-reading.” (Calkins, 2001)
