In this episode:

            I talk about the what, why and how of using read aloud with accountable talk as part of your test prep strategy.

We talk about:

1.What test prep is and what it isn't.

2. Why read aloud should be a part of your test prep strategy.

3.How to leverage your read aloud time within your test prep framework.

Quotables:

-Test prep should feel like a time of review for students. It should feel like an opportunity to apply the skills that they have already learned in a different format. 

-Read-aloud creates a shared experience, it provides an opportunity to practice active listening,it’s an inclusive practice and it helps to reduce stress during this potentially stressful time in the year. 

-Studies show that being read to helps to reduce stress, anxiety levels and heart rate. Which makes read-aloud the perfect component of your test prep plan.
