Read Aloud can be enjoyed by students at all levels, even at the university level:) Professor Pickett showed us a video about Jennifer Myer doing a read aloud lesson with her students. I was amazed by the classroom management and how she would engage her students in thinking about text to text connections. The teacher also had the students talk to their elbow partner to discuss the book and reinforce the lesson.
During a read aloud we must first do a book walk, showing the cover discussing the title, make predictions, go over vocabulary, look at the illustrations and make more predictions. We also need to connect the students, referencing or building the students schemata.
