Teatro de lectura para grados 3 y 4: ¡desarrolla habilidades de fluidez y comprensión!

In this class, students will practice reading like voice acting to develop their reading fluency. I model what good expression sounds like, such as appropriate pauses and thinking like that character you are reading. We visualize what a character looks like, age, gender and geographical location to explore possible voices that character may have. We will also focus on reading comprehension and script analysis. There will also be a few vocabulary words that I will pre-teach before each script. 

Here is the weekly breakdown. The class cycles back every 8 weeks. Good readers reread a text. So please feel welcome to cycle back with me again!
