BEFORE READING:
In order to help the young reader be able to fluently read
the article, have him or her read the list of possible hard
words. You help out with any names or words that appear to
be causing difficulty. Then ask the young reader to read the
article aloud to you and be prepared to discuss it afterward.
DURING READING:
Supply any names or words fairly rapidly if they appear to
be causing difficulty. The object is to keep the oral reading
reasonably fluent.
AFTER READING:
Use question such as the following in order to check comprehension
and stimulate a discussion of the article.
- Where will
the kids' artwork be displayed during the festival?
- What are some
of the topics that the kids tell stories about?
- What do the
kids do in the festival besides just displaying their pictures?
- Would you
be interested in attending the storytelling festival? Why
or why not?
