Whole Group and Small Group Oral Reading Practice Strategies
Whole Group and Small Group Oral Reading Practice Strategies
← The following strategies are designed to engage as many students as possible while group reading.
← Provide daily, multiple opportunities for all students to practice oral reading!!
← Mix it up! Use a variety of strategies—change by the page and day.
Popcorn Reading:
← Place 3 different colored sticky notes on the table (one for each student, or, one on each table group in the classroom). Write the letters A and B on the different colored sticky notes (see example below).
Call on different groups of students to read (Change by the sentence, in the middle of sentences or at a page—be unpredictable!) Examples: “Popcorn! A group”, “Popcorn! B group”, “Popcorn! Pink group”, “Popcorn! Girls”, “Popcorn! Boys”, “Popcorn! Table 1”, etc.
← Note: This strategy could also be used without the colored sticky notes.

Jump In! Reading
← Follow directions for “Popcorn” reading.
← Call on different groups of students to “jump in” and read together
Examples: “Pink group begin reading” “blue group jump in” “yellow group jump in” etc…
Choral Reading
← Everyone reads together.
← “Everyone, finger under the first word, read…” or “Everyone, ready? Read…”
← If students begin reading “like robots”, say “Stop. I want you to read like this…”(model pacing). “Your turn, everyone, ready? Read…”
Cloze Reading
← Teacher reads and stops intentionally at words that students should practice (ie., words with the target phonic element or vocabulary words)
← “Today I went to the _____. I saw a big _____.”
Partner Reading
← When partner reading, make sure that both students have jobs (i.e., one student is pointing while the other is reading).
Echo Reading
← Students repeat what the teacher reads. “My turn…..Your turn….”
← Note: the purpose of this activity is to practice fluency of expression
← Not appropriate for the first time the students are reading the text.
Silent Reading
← When asking students to silent read for a few sentences or pages, give them a purpose for the reading. Example: Find out who this story is about, etc.
← Ask students to point to what they are reading with their finger and to point to the spot where they find the answer.
