One of my favorite things to do is read aloud stories to my son and my students. I love making all the voices and helping bring a story to life, watching the children's reactions and enjoyment. Follow this website to resources for World Read Aloud Day on Wednesday. This is a great resource for teachers but some activities can be used within the home by parents as well.

Enjoy! Read aloud everyday!
