I came across this article from the weekly news feed I receive from Decoda Literacy Solutions, a BC based literacy organization.
During the school closure and period of remote learning and working from home last Spring 2020, I read-aloud The Hobbit to my 3 elementary-aged children. It was an enjoyable and memorable literacy experience for us all as we embarked on the hobbit’s journey together. Take a look at this article from EdSurge to explore more reasons for listening to stories and some great recommendations.
