Read Aloud Task Room 28

This is further information about our read aloud task as discussed at school and included on the last Home Learning sheet.

Learning intention: we are learning to read a self-selected excerpt from a book aloud to entertain an audience of our peers.

Suggested process
• Select a text you enjoy reading.
• Practise reading different excerpts out loud until you have a piece you feel comfortable with and that takes you between 1 and 2 minutes to present.
• Choose a place to stop that either creates an air of suspense or completes that section of the story.
• Plan a brief introduction to your selection which gives some background information.
• Practise many times, so you are very familiar with the vocabulary, remembering to use appropriate expression and pace.

This 'read aloud' presentation will be given by each member of the class in Week 2 or 3, Term 4
