 A big part of our 'read to self' and 'read to someone' this year was looking at the ways we can read a book. Students were very aware that they might not be able to read the words, leaving them feeling sad and uninterested in reading. So we spent ALOT of talking about how you can read the pictures to help you make a guess or inference about what the story might be about.
