Kindergarten teacher, Jamie Landahl, tells us about how she has used the Read Aloud Project in her school, North Las Vegas Duncan Elementary School. The project is appropriate for children in K-2nd grades. The project focuses on building student comprehension and vocabulary by enhancing read alouds with activities. The following article describes the method which involves 30 minutes a day for a week. Results? Amazing....She describes her kids as coming to Kindergarten not knowing how to hold a pencil. At the end of the year, her students answered questions and were able to write complete sentences. Excellent article.
