Shared reading is an interactive reading experience where the teacher reads a text aloud while students follow along. This method encourages students to engage with the text and make predictions about what will happen next. Today, we will read a short story together and discuss our thoughts and predictions before and during the reading.
Before we start reading, let’s look at the cover of the story. What do you think this story is about? Based on the title and the picture, I predict that it will be about a brave little dog. As we read, I will pause at certain points and ask you to share your predictions about what might happen next. This will help us think critically about the text.
Now, let’s read the first paragraph of our story. As I read, I want you to think about what might happen next. After I finish, I will ask you to share your predictions. Remember to use complete sentences and correct punctuation when you speak. For example, you could say, 'I predict that the dog will find a treasure.'
After our shared reading, I want you to write your own prediction about the story. Use at least two sentences and make sure to include correct punctuation. For example, 'I think the dog will meet a new friend. They will go on an adventure together.' Once you finish writing, we will share our predictions with a partner.
