Read-alouds are one of the most important tools for children in their reading development, but how do you work these into an already full academic day? Download #RIF's tip sheet & see how easy it is to integrate #RallytoRead into your daily classroom routines. To support fluency, consider having students listen to the story multiple times: first with the author video, then with the teacher modeling fluent reading, and finally with the student reading independently at a center or at home. Repeated readings build confidence, comprehension, and oral fluency. https://lnkd.in/d4H3FjJB
