HOW TO TEACH - STORIES


HOW TO TEACH - STORIES



  • Be animated. Read each book to its fullest potential. Your voice and facial expressions give a book life. Make it an exciting one.
  • Let them fill in the blanks. If a book repeats phrases or words, has pictures that help you discover some of the words, or if the child has read a book several times and knows it well, pause when you come to an obvious word and let them say it.
  • Talk about the story. Stop at "cliff-hanger" pages and ask them what they think will come next. Talk about how the characters feel or why they are acting a certain way.
  • Share your favorites. Find your favorite authors and illustrators and buy or check out their books frequently.
