LISTEN-READ-DISCUSS

The listen-read-discuss strategy can be implemented in reading lessons to increase comprehension and classroom discussion. Students may work in groups or altogether as a class.

How to use listen-read-discuss:

1. Listen: Present information to students about the book they will be reading. Encourage students to take notes.

2. Read: Ask students to read a text selection. The content should be similar to the material presented during the "listen" portion of the lesson.

3. Discuss: Lead a classroom discussion of the material. Encourage students to reflect on any differences between their reading and the initial presentation of material.
