Reading aloud helps a cluld to read -Mth pleasure,create background knowledge,and build

vocabulary. It also prowides children with a reading model. Reading alo::d doesn't just benefit

young children Parents should continue reading aloud as their children grow because listening

comprehension is more importarit than reading skills in middle school.

Jim Trelease,in his Read-Aloud Handbook,has noted that almost as big a mistake as not

reading to chiidren at all is stopping too soon  Until about the eighth grade,children listen aml

comprehend on a higher level than their reading skills allow them to read independently, This

means children can hear and understand stories that are more difficult and more interesting than

anything they can read on their own
