If you are a young adult or adult, I am sure it has been years since you have participated in a read aloud.  Think back to elementary school, your teacher or librarian most likely spent some time each day reading a picture book or chapter book to the class.  

Reading aloud is important for all ages!  

Here's a few reasons why:

• Experience the joy of story
• Models fluent reading
• Expands vocabulary
• Exposes listeners to new authors, text, and genres
• Builds awareness and empathy
• Improves long term reading success

So the next time you are watching your sibling, babysitting, or caring for anyone from 0-99, go a head & grab a book to READ ALOUD!
