"Reading aloud to children is the single most important activity one can do to raise a reader."
This quote comes from the U.S. Department of Education. Hopefully you are reading to your students every day. A story at large group would be great. A fun way to start your small groups might be with a story! Remember to make your stories come alive for your students. If necessary; howl, laugh, growl, giggle, shiver, empathize or sympathize during the reading! We need to attach children to books. We need to help them to associate books with pleasure! A quote from Bev Boz (early childhood specialist), "Read,read, read, read, and, when you think your lips are going to fall off, read one more!"
