I am strongly opposed to having kids practice reading aloud because someday they might have to do it in some class. Elisa, Today I've been trying to think of times in life that people read out loud. Maybe some others could come up with a list. The times I am thinking about are like when my husband or my girls and I read out loud to one another. Like we find something really interesting in a book or newspaper and want to share it. Or what about reading out loud to your children? Wouldn't you want your students to be able to read well out loud to their own children if they have them? I'd be devastated if I couldn't read well to my grandkids. I thought about in church, although I guess that is often done chorally. Can anyone else think of a time when it is necessary to read out loud and it would be a detriment or embarrassment to do it poorly?
