A new year can be a new beginning for so many things! What are you tying new this year? Whatever it is, I hope it is positive and happy! Enjoy the rest of your break!
Reading aloud makes reading visible, showing students the intricacies of reading that they might not otherwise observe. Modeling fluency, expression, & tone will provide students with a framework for improving their reading skills.
