Read to Someone

This week we launched the "Read to Someone" portion of our Daily 5 reading block.  During this time, students are working with a partner to practice their independent reading.  This type of reading gives students a fun way of practicing fluent and expressive reading.  It also helps readers increase their reading involvement, attention, and collaboration.  So far we've worked on checking for understanding when listening to a partner read.  When we read with a partner, we sit EEKK.  Can you figure out what this means?  Ask your child to tell you more!
