[quote=Anonymous]I'm trying to figure out what you can possibly mean by this. I do know that, at times, my middle schooler has had books where they've read a section at home, where my kid is reading every word himself, and then read a section a school where the students are taking turns or different roles or even listening to the teacher read to allow for in depth discussion. For example, they read a Shakespeare play, and one kid reads Romeo, and one Juliet. There are also times when teachers read aloud (or they could use an audiobook, but I haven't seen it) so that kids can practice their oral comprehension and get a model of high quality fluency. This is hardly a new fangled thing. In fact there's been a move in education towards doing less of this, and MCPS certainly does less round robin reading than I did as a kid. [/quote]
