| Abstract: | Interactive read alouds are important learning opportunities for emergent readers because teachers and peers can actively
model and scaffold comprehension strategies, engage readers, and cultivate a community of learners. Using data from a 9 month
ethnographic study in an urban kindergarten classroom, this article describes how the teacher’s approach facilitated rich
interaction in the classroom as students read and made sense of stories together. Findings of this study demonstrate how interactive
read alouds were important learning opportunities for emergent readers because they provided opportunities for open-ended
responses combined with specific reading instruction. The interactive read alouds created a space where meaning was constructed
through dialogue and classroom interaction, providing an opportunity for children to respond to literature in a way that builds
on their strengths and extends their knowledge. |
