12 Reasons for Using Oral Reading
1. To whet students’ appetites for reading.
2. To share or perform.3. To help beginning readers better
understand how speaking is related to the other language arts and to their lives.
![Page 3: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
4. To develop listening comprehension and vocabulary.
5. To assist students in developing numerous skills associated with reading.
6. To promote language learning for students whose first language is not English.
7. To build confidence.8. To further develop comprehension.

9. To determine the strategies used when reading.
10. To provide a means of shared reading progress with self and others.
11. To provide children with additional reading time necessary for ongoing reading growth.
12. To address national reading and language arts standards.

Share the Purpose• Students think the only purpose of
oral reading is assessment.• Share with students your reasons
for having them read aloud.
![Page 6: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why Move Away from Round Robin Reading?
1. It provides students with an inaccurate view of reading.
2. It can potentially cause faulty reading habits instead of effective reading strategies.
3. It can cause unnecessary subvocalization.
![Page 7: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
4. It can cause inattentive behaviors, leading to discipline problems.
5. It can work against all students developing to their full potential.
6. It consumes valuable classroom time that could be spent on other meaningful activities.
7. It can be a source of anxiety and embarrassment for students.
8. It can hamper listening comprehension.

Why Move Away from Round Robin Reading?
•“In terms of listening and meaning making, this strategy is a disaster.”–Sloan and Lotham, 1981
![Page 9: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• “Clearly, although oral reading can be beneficial, round robin reading is not. It often prohibits rather than facilitates the ability to read… It fails to meet the legitimate purposes of reading aloud.”– (Opitz & Rasinski, 1998, p. 8)
Why Move Away from Round Robin Reading?
![Page 10: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
“After lunch Miss Tyler called the Rockets to the reading circle. I’m a Rocket. Rosemary read the first sentence. And Tom read the next one. They didn’t make any mistakes today. When it was my turn, I said, ‘Sally was a horse.’ Miss Tyler said, ‘Ronald, that’s not right.’ Rosemary said, ‘Sally saw a house.’ And Tom said, ‘Some Rocket you are.’”

Research Base• Second graders’ reading growth• Traditional round robin reading vs shared
reading• Shared reading
– Moved average students from 50th to 80th percentile in word analysis (letter sound correspondences) and they became 20% better in oral reading than the round robin group.
– Helped below average students perform 41% better on oral reading than the round robin group.
• Eldredge, Reutzel, and Hollingsworth (1996)
![Page 12: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Why Does Round Robin Persist?
• Tradition• Classroom Management• Reading Assessment• To Save Time• Not Knowing What Else To Do
![Page 13: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
First Reading of a Selection
• Never have students read aloud a selection cold.
• Always provide time for students to first read silently or have the teacher read the selection or part of the selection first.
![Page 14: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
First Reading of a Selection
• Fluency Development Lesson– Teacher reads to
students– Teacher and students
discuss selection and expression
– Students read chorally– Students read as
partners
• Oral Recitation Lesson– Teacher reads to
students– Students discuss and
summarize selection– Students chorally
read– Students practice in
pairs or partners
![Page 15: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
First Reading of a Selection
• Supported Oral Reading– Teacher reads to
students and stops for discussion
– Teacher and students read chorally
– Students read as partners
• Fluency Oriented Reading Selection– Teacher reads basal
selection– Students discuss– Teacher and students
practice rereading all or part of selection
– Students daily read independently in easy text
![Page 16: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Strategies for Practice Reading of a Previously
Read Selection
![Page 17: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Read it again and again!
• Underwater• With a cold• Like a mouse• Like a monster• Fast• Slow• Sad
• Angry• Happy• Like a robot• High voice• Low voice• Opera-style
![Page 18: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Collaborative Reading• The teacher reads the story.• The group reads the story aloud
with the teacher.• The group reads the story aloud in
pairs.• Individuals read the story aloud to
the teacher.
![Page 19: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Echo Reading• Teacher reads a line of the story.• Students echo the teacher’s model
by reading the same line, imitating the teacher’s intonation and phrasing.
• Later, the teacher reads a whole paragraph and students echo.
![Page 20: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Choral Reading• The whole class reads together.• Variations:
– Girls and boys alternate reading– Rows/Tables alternate reading
![Page 21: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Cut-Apart Story• The story is cut into sections. One
section for each group member.• Students practice their section
silently. • Each section is read aloud in
sequence.
![Page 22: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Simultaneous Oral Reading with Whisper
Phones• Students read individually into Whisper
Phones.• With a Whisper Phone the sound is
immediately repeated back to the student, and background noise is diminished.
• Teacher moves around group listening to individuals.
• If student finishes, (s)he rereads until teacher gives the signal to stop.
![Page 23: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
First Read Silently• After silent reading, students use oral
reading to demonstrate skills in locating answers to specific questions or challenges set forth by the teacher, e.g. illustrating character mood, finding supporting details for making predictions, identifying aspects of the author’s style, and so on.
![Page 24: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Self-Selected Titles• Students bring self-selected titles
to the reading group.• Each is encouraged to tell
something about his unique book and to read aloud an interesting portion (which he has already read silently and practiced for fluency).
![Page 25: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Jigsaw• Divide class into home groups.• Assign each person in the home group an
“expert” number.• Students reassemble into the “expert” groups
(that correspond with the number they were assigned) to practice orally reading their assigned page or story. Students work together to decode unknown words and practice expression.
• Experts return to home groups, and each home group member shares or reads aloud his/her assignment.
![Page 26: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Popcorn Reading• Students highlight words, phrases,
or sentences that create for them a memorable mental picture as they silently read the selection.
• Highlighted phrases or sentences are then shared orally by readers who “pop up” in random order.
![Page 27: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Everyone Read To (ERT)
• The teacher tells students how much to read silently. While students read the teacher writes an open-ended comprehension question on the board.
• Students read the segment and then think about question on board.
• Students share their answers with a partner or with the class.
• The teacher assigns the next section to read.
![Page 28: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Read Around• Students read the story silently. • Then students are invited to look back
through the story to find at least one favorite sentence or paragraph that they would like to share with others.
• Students practice reading their selection silently.
• Students read their selections aloud to the group.
![Page 29: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Paired or Partner Reading
Paired Reading• Fluent reader with
less fluent reader• Begin reading
simultaneously• Signal for when the
less fluent reader wants to read alone
• Back to simultaneous reading if experiencing difficulty
Partner Reading• Both partners
equally involved• Alternating pages• Take turns reading
entire selection• Read chorally
![Page 30: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Partner Reading with “Say Something”
• One partner reads the first paragraph while the partner follows along and listens.
• When the reader finishes, the listener must “say something” about what was read.
• The partners switch roles.
![Page 31: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
OREO Partner Reading• Students take turns reading one page at
a time with a partner.• Partners list two ‘o’vations and one
‘re’commendation on the OREO recording sheet.
• Example ovations: “Read with expression.” “Self-corrected.”
• Example recommendation: “Think about what makes sense.”
![Page 32: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Cumulative Choral Reading
• One student begins reading the passage.
• A second student joins in on the second line.
• A third student joins in on the third line and so on.
![Page 33: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The Pet ShopBy Brenda B. Covert
The sun had come up. Birds sang in the trees. Hunter and Sally went down the street. Their mother was with them. She had said they could get a pet.
“I cannot wait to see the pets!” Sally said. She wanted a cat. Hunter wanted a frog or a snake.
![Page 34: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Guidelines for Responding to Miscues
1. Do not correct miscues that do not disrupt meaning.
2. If the miscue disrupts meaning, give the student time to self-correct it. Wait until the end of the sentence or paragraph.
3. Model self-monitoring behavior and meaning making. (“That didn’t make sense, did it? Let’s try that again.”)
![Page 35: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
4. Suggest or demonstrate an appropriate strategy. (“Let’s skip that word and come back to it.” “Look at what it starts with.” “Let’s look at this chunk of the word.”)
5. Praise appropriate strategy use. (“You did a great job of looking at the picture to help you!” “I like the way you went back and read that again when it didn’t make sense!”)
![Page 36: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
6. Tell the child the word when appropriate.
7. Do not let the reading become slow, labored, and unpleasant. Take over the reading, do echo reading, or take turns reading with the student; then choose an easier text for the next time. Always make reading a pleasurable experience.

What is Readers’ Theater?
• Is– Script reading– Using the voice
to make the performance meaningful
• Isn’t– It is not putting
on a play.– No costumes,
props, or scenery required.
![Page 40: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Why use Readers' Theater?
• It’s an authentic, entertaining, and educationally powerful way to read and communicate meaning.
• Opportunity for students to practice reading in multiple and meaningful ways.
• Yields improvements in students’ word recognition, fluency and comprehension.
![Page 41: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Why Use Readers’ Theater?• “…I ask myself, what would make me want to
engage in repeated reading? To improve my rate of reading? Not really. What would really inspire me to engage in repeated reading or rehearsal is performance. If I were to give an oral reading of a passage, I would most certainly have an incentive to practice, rehearse, or engage in repeated readings. All of us, at one time or another, have read for an audience. It is likely that we practiced in advance of that reading, and if we didn’t it is likely that we wish we had.”– Rasinski, 2006
![Page 42: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Why Use Readers’ Theater?
• Second grader Lucia wrote in her journal, “I never thought I could be a star, but I was the best reader today.”
![Page 43: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Research Base• Two second grade classrooms over a ten
week period• Thirty minutes a day to Readers' Theater
instruction, practice and performance• Students exhibited fluency gain of 17 words
per minute in reading unrehearsed texts• Students gained one to two grade levels on
comprehension scores on IRIs Strecker, Roser & Martinez, 1999
![Page 44: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Research Base• Struggling second graders who
rehearsed and then performed poetry and other performance texts made significantly greater gains in reading rate than students reading but not rehearsing and performing the same material.– Rasinski, Padak, Linek, and Sturevant, 1994
![Page 45: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Research Base• Perfect for ELL students
– Roser, 2001
• Provides purpose and motivation for all students– Shepard, 1997
• Creating scripts involves students in demonstrating comprehension, summarizing, synthesizing, and communicating information– Flynn, 2004 and 2005

“Doing the Book”• Appropriate for kindergarten and
first grade• A popular follow-up to reading is
the reenacting of the book, with various children playing different parts as the rest of the class or the teacher reads or tells the story.
![Page 48: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Adapting Basal Stories for Readers' Theater
• Choose a story with peppy dialogue, a little action, humor, lively narration, and several parts.
• Make copies of the story (1 to 3 pages of the story may be enough).
• Highlight spoken parts in different colors.• Highlight narrator parts in another color.• Assign parts, practice, and perform.
![Page 49: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Be Creative• Students can take an
interesting article in the newspaper and write their own script.
• Use the story from the literature book and write script from the view of a supporting character.
![Page 50: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Cut!• Variation on Readers' Theater• Movie set• Director calls for the cast
members to repeat their lines with different emotions: sad, happy, angry, or slower and faster
• Fun!
![Page 51: Round Robin Reading Rethought Dr. Kristen Pennycuff Trent kpennycuff@tntech.edu](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649e7f5503460f94b83257/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Radio Reading• One student reads as the announcer
and the other students act as listeners.• Only the announcer has a copy of the
text.• Choose a text at the child’s reading
level. Allow ample practice.• Allow the student to practice with a
partner, then a small group.

One Teacher’s Guide to Using Readers' Theater1. Before the week: Select or write a script to
be performed. Make 2 copies for each group member.
2. Monday: Introduce or review the nature, purpose, and procedures for Readers' Theater.
3. Assign students individual parts by having them volunteer or audition. Parts can also be assigned by students within groups and can rotate from one performance to another.
