Read to Someone ... in Australia!

One of the choices we have each day in our reading programme is 'Read to Someone'.
It is always a popular choice.
Students usually sit side-by-side and can either take turns reading pages of the same book, or take turns to read pages from their own books.
At the end of each page they check for understanding - who the page was about and what happened.

Today Jack and Nikki read to Georgia and Tessa  - at 
Harston School in Victoria, Australia!
Now everyone else is looking forward to their turn!

How does reading to someone help us to become better readers?
What book are you reading at the moment?

  3. This is a great idea! We have used Skype to learn from our friends in Australia and we have also had skype-sing-alongs. It must be so much fun reading with a friend in another country :)
