Learning how to deliver good literacy instruction is key to becoming a successful teacher. This resource isn't so much a lesson as it is a guide to leading children in an interactive read-aloud session to increase fluency, comprehension, and critical thinking. Dialogue, guiding questions, and teaching how-to's are clearly outlined throughout the resource. If you are subbing or just entering the classroom, the lesson ideas provided here will be a big help. Note: Many of the ideas link to Ellis Island and immigration, so these ideas are also cross-curricular.
