Learning Challenge: Reading Out Loud
So this week, I tried reading out loud. Normally, I'm not a fan. I'm much faster if I just read in my head. However, I actually liked reading the stories. It forced me to read every single word and not skip anything. Since I'm a silly person, my favorite part, of course, was adding sound effects and appropriate sounding voices for all the characters. I don't think I can always read out loud since I usually do my reading in the library, but I'll definitely keep it in my mind!

Hi Jency,
ReplyDeleteThat's really interesting because I also feel like I am so much more careful of a reader when I read out loud. I don't really prefer it, because most of the time I am reading, I am around several people. However, I have noticed that when I read out loud, I definitely catch more details and stay connected to the subject matter better,
Jency,
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I find that, even when I read out loud, I still miss careless errors that I make... but it is still certainly a helpful strategy! I've also never thought of adding sound effects and the like before... I'll have to try that the next time that I read through for errors. Might make the process of discovering mistakes more fun!
