Model Read-Alouds (continued) 7. Do stop and ask questions, but don’t go overboard. Use places in the story where there is a natural pause to stop and ask your child questions that will guide him or her toward understanding. Point out clues that can be used from what you’ve read so far that might be helpful in making predictions (not guesses). 8. Ask your child to participate in the reading in some way. You may ask your child to do things like read a certain character’s lines or read all the repetitive parts of the story (e.g., word phrases that occur again and again such as, “Run, run as fast as you can… you can’t catch me I’m the Gingerbread Man!”). 9. After you have finished the story, review. Flip back through the pages and talk about what you read together. Talk about interesting things you learned or questions your child may have or ones that are left unanswered by the author. Give your child the opportunity to retell the story or parts of the story using his or her own words. 10. Extend the reading experience. Relate the reading to your daily lives in some way. You might cook food related to the story, talk with someone who knows more about the subject, do a related art project, or write a pretend letter to one of the characters. Apply what you’ve learned! Parents- You’ll have a chance to show off what you’ve learned during this workshop. At the end of this workshop, you’ll watch a trainer do a read-aloud demonstration. During that demonstration, we challenge you to identify all ten tips for reading aloud listed in the Model Read-Alouds blueprint. Here’s some information on the book that you and your children will enjoy during this final activity: Sam’s Sandwich by David Pelham. Synopsis - Sam makes his sister a sandwich. His sister Samantha offers him a bite, but Sam knows something Samantha doesn’t know; he’s put some unusual ingredients inside. Do you think Sam will take a bite?
