    Example: Use This Strategy In in the Classroom

  • A teacher can model different comprehension strategies during a read aloud and ask students to reread the text to practice those strategies independently or in pairs. Reiterating the practice of rereading as a positive habit builds students' confidence in their reading. Furthermore, rereading allows students to practice their Decoding and Sight Recognition to become more fluid readers.

  • Reader's Theater Scripts allow learners to practice oral reading fluency and public speaking. Each script has several parts that are divided among learners. Through this fun performance activity, learners actively reread to practice fluent delivery of their lines.
