Activity Documents used when Learning the Strategy

Implementing the Strategy in Your Classroom
The documents below will remind you of the activities introduced within this section. You are encouraged to print and read them. The Write Definitions document provides practice in writing child-friendly definitions for any target vocabulary that may need clarification during a Dialogic Reading session.  Books that are appropriate to use for Dialogic Reading are included in the Booklist.  Please be aware that these are just examples and this is not meant to be an exhaustive list. There is also a Book Template which can be used to remind you what types of questions to ask each day, which words are target words, and where the target words appear in the book. This document can also assist you in planning for your Dialogic Reading lesson, and it can be attached to the back of your Dialogic Reading book to guide you throughout the lesson.
