- Abstract
The article discusses the benefits of allowing students to read aloud in class. It is noted that the performances give students a reason to practice their reading if they are going to do it in front of their peers and that oral reading can often lead to discussions with the whole class or in small groups. The classroom management aspects of this teaching method are analyzed, including how students themselves choose the texts. While reading, the students receive feedback from their classmates who react to the text.
