[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it takes until 8th grade for students' reading abilities to match their comprehension, something is off. My kids were assigned nightly reading homework beginning in 4th grade. They would be assigned to read a few chapters of whatever novel the class was reading so they had class time for discussions, presentations, group work, etc. Teachers reading aloud novels does nothing to support reading comprehension.[/quote] Teachers reading around does support comprehension and literacy particularly depending on the text. They can add appropriate inflection, emotion, and even pause. Not to mention that people are often capable of understanding things heard even jf beyond their reading level It’s no different than a person reading and acting out lines for a play versus reading them in a page.[/quote]
