Silence for Solo Reading

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Students examine how to read silently after listening to a number of teacher given book talks. They review the silent reading techniques of cross-checking, and the cover up method. Next, they complete independent silent reading each day and give a book talk when assigned by the teacher.
