Read to Someone

One of our "Daily 5" each day is "Read to Someone."  During this time students share books with a partner.  This is to help build fluency by reading aloud and to help foster of love of reading by sharing favorite stories with a friend.  During this time, students also work on using reading strategies together, sometimes coaching each other in decoding new words or reading more fluently.  As I'm sure you can imagine, read to someone is one of our favorite rounds!  Ask your child to tell you about the stories they've shared with friends during "read to someone."
