I choose thematically with a focus on non-fiction, underrepresented populations, and/or current events.  (I do #classroombookaday and we read one picture book every day, without fail.)

I brake for Greek/Latin roots - this is a big focus for us, so when we see them in the wild, we pause and try to deconstruct a word to find the parts that we can identify.

I love thinking aloud as I read. "I noticed..." and find my students love to chime in after this initial support.

I pause on occasion (not too often) to look at how an illustration affects the mood of a section of the book.  This standard is hard for students to address via photocopied pages - the colors and nuances of a picture book are important.

For my language impaired kiddos and those working on comprehension, we use lots of picture books to support visualizing! So many students read the words, but they don't "make the movie play in their heads" without intervention. Picture books really help!

I have been reticient in this area this year - the real focus of #classroombookaday is engagement and enjoyment, with the second runner up being working on theme identification.  I should be asking the kids every day what the theme of the book was, but I have not been this year.  Partly due to so many non-fiction texts, but also just out of habit.

We try to use a lot of authentic student talk. As I pose questions, I ask for answers with some evidence. If a student is stuck, they can ask for time or help! We encourage "I agree!" or "I have a different idea!" to encourage active listening to peers.

We read so much rich text that many times students will start to make connections with other texts and we stop to appreciate commonalities

The biggest thing....especially working with ESE is no matter their thoughts on a particular read loud, I try to always make their thinking valued and it really helps their confidence when they feel safe and free to express themselves in a positive environment

I love showing students the cover and asking what they think we'll be reading about. They're background knowledge is amazing! It's excellent for modeling prediction/inferencing skills.

There's something special about the excitement on older students' faces when we pull out a picture book instead of worksheets. The content can be just as rich!

I love using pictures during a read aloud to support unknown words! For example, if the word is "gloomy," it's so helpful to have a picture to support students' independence with context clues in a visual way.
